Re: [Crash-utility] Reasons why kdump isn't activated

First you need to figure out the reason of your system failure. If its complete power failure, then kexec wont be able to load a new kernel in current context. Secondly, is kexec properly configured in your system?

My first though is that it means a hardware failure, not a kernel problem.
