WARNING: vmlinux and /proc/version do not match!
WARNING: /proc/version indicates kernel version: 2.6.32.12-0.7-xen
crash: please use the vmlinux file for that kernel version, or try using
the System.map for that kernel version as an additional argument.
If you can't run crash on the live system, then you can't run it
on a crash dump.
For both the live system, and the dumpfile, you need either:
(1) the original debuginfo-full vmlinux file for kernel 2.6.32.12-0.7-xen, or
if that doesn't exist,
(2) a rebuilt 2.6.32.12-0.7-xen debuginfo-full vmlinux kernel along with the
*original* 2.6.32.12-0.7-xen System.map file
Then you should be able to run on both the live system and with the dumpfile:
$ crash vmlinux System.map
$ crash vmlinux System.map dumpfile
