Re: [Crash-utility] reason for being

Welcome aboard -- even if you don't want to be on deck! My arm's been twisted into creating this list for things like crash usage questions, bug reports, patch postings, feature requests, release announcements, and the like. Actually the real impetus for this list comes from the upstream kernel development of kexec/kdump facility as a generally-accepted manner of saving kernel core dumps. And as such, the crash utility will be updated to support the new kdump vmcore format, while continuing support for netdump and diskdump, and with a little help from my friends, LKCD. If you are wondering, I have seeded the subscriber list with several prolific crash users and developers. I'll also put a pointer to this list in the crash.changelog file on my people site, which I'm guessing may bring in several more. We shall see... In any case, I won't be insulted if you unsubscribe immediately. For those who do stick around, please feel free to post on this list messages that you have previously sent directly to me.
