Merrifield is pretty much similar than Medfield, e.g it has x86 core. So I
guess you can follow the instructions how to setup kdump on x86 (see
Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt) unless you already have that configured.
crash should support this directly presuming you have vmlinux/vmcore files to
feed it. You can configure crash to support x86 on x86_64 host by running:
% make target=X86
& make
(or something along those lines).
Right -- just the first make command will suffice, i.e., when running
on an x86_64 host:
$ wget
http://people.redhat.com/anderson/crash-6.0.4.tar.gz
$ tar xzf crash-6.0.4.tar.gz
...
$ cd crash-6.0.4
$ make target=X86
...
$ ./crash <path-to>/vmlinux <path-to>/vmcore
