Package: kexec-tools Version: 1.101-2 Severity: normal
Please apply the following patches for x86_64 (they are dpatch patches for debian/patch ). They do the following: (1) kdump10.diff.dpatch This is the kdump10 patch from the sourceforge website, needed for kexec -p to work. (2) x86_64-typo.diff.dpatch This fixes a small typo in kexec-elf-x86_64.c that causes an incorrect error message for --args-none (3) crashdump_warning.diff.dpatch [EMAIL PROTECTED] failed for me on IBM 326M eMachines servers. For some reason (I think a collision with where the kernel is loaded), it failed to reserve the space needed. Using [EMAIL PROTECTED] instead worked (and building CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START=0x2000000 in the capture kernel), but finding the problem took a while due to unhelpful "kexec_load failed" message. This gives a better error message; for the moment on x86_64 only; it could be ported to other archs.
