I'm presuming that your Ubuntu machine is an x86_64 host,
and you're trying to build a 32-bit kexec-tools package
that you can install on your Android setup.  I am not
sure how that is done.  But for help on kexec-tools,
you should be posting to the kexec-list mailing list:
  
This list is specific to the crash utility issues.

 Hi,
 
 
 
 I have downloaded kexec-tools-2.0.3 to Ubuntu machine(10.04) from
 
http://horms.net/projects/kexec/ .
 
 
 
 Thereafter as mentioned in Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt, I have done
 the below steps.
 
 
 
 3) Unpack the tarball with the tar command, as follows:
 
 
 
 tar xvpzf kexec-tools.tar.gz
 
 
 
 4) Change to the kexec-tools directory, as follows:
 
 
 
 cd kexec-tools-VERSION
 
 
 
 (Version is 2.0.3)
 
 
 
 But the next step is configuration and build of package, as below.
 
 So what option do I need to give to compile for Gingerbread sources.
 
 Because the below set of commands will configure and compile for
 Linux Ubuntu-dev 2.6.32-38-generic.
 
 
 
 But I want to compile for Gingerbread sources.
 
 
 
 I have the gingerbread sources.
 
 
 
 {{{
 
 5) Configure the package, as follows:
 
 
 
 ./configure
 
 
 
 6) Compile the package, as follows:
 
 
 
 make
 
 
 
 7) Install the package, as follows:
 
 
 
 make install
 
 }}}
 
 
 
 Also, after compiling, do I need to copy the kexec utility to target
 or it will be part of kernel build itself?
 
 
 
 Thanks & Regards,
 
 Amar Shankar

 Right -- just the first make command will suffice, i.e., when running
 on an x86_64 host:
 
 $ wget 
http://people.redhat.com/anderson/crash-6.0.4.tar.gz
 $ tar xzf crash-6.0.4.tar.gz
 ...
 $ cd crash-6.0.4
 $ make target=X86
 ...
 $ ./crash <path-to>/vmlinux <path-to>/vmcore
