I got it working with vmlinux.dbg rebuilt with SMP flag turned on.
I wonder what was going on with crash and the kerntypes file, which was
working with lcrash.
The updates in the first half of this year enabled crash to work with
the (non-standard) ELF format dump generated for RedHat guests. It would
be great when the gust is SLES 9, the same non-standard ELF format dump
generated could also work with crash, since the mechanism for generating
such dumps are already in place.
Later,
