Hello Dave, I'm sorry for taking considerably long time. Now I post a patch set implementing sadump support for crash utility. Applying this patch set, crash utility will be able to recognize sadump-related formats on 3 kinds configurations: single partition, diskset and media backup file. The crash version the patch set can be applied to is 5.1.7. Please look at each patch description for detailed explanation.

BTW, do you want sadump dumpfiles? I geuss you need them for testing samples.
