Repro rate: 100% Repro details: Hyper-V: Server 2012 R2 VM: Ubuntu 14.10 32bit Kdump is enabled in the config file at /etc/default/kdump-tools Different crashkernel values used in grub.cfg – 128M-:64M | 256M-:128m | 384M-:256M VM settings: 2 cores, various RAM sizes attempted: 1, 2 or 4 GB – this in combination with the values for crashkernel. Trying to start the kdump service: root@ubuntu1410i386:~# /etc/init.d/kdump-tools start Starting kdump-tools: Could not find a free area of memory of 0x9f000 bytes... locate_hole failed * failed to load kdump kernel --- root@ubuntu1410i386:~# cat /sys/kernel/kexec_crash_loaded 0 If the conversion from hex to dec is right, the mentioned memory mapping of 0x9f000 bytes is equal to 651264 (bytes), so under 1MB. This is not then related to the RAM allocation nor the crashkernel value used. --- AlsaDevices: Error: command ['ls', '-l', '/dev/snd/'] failed with exit code 2: ls: cannot access /dev/snd/: No such file or directory AplayDevices: Error: [Errno 2] No such file or directory ApportVersion: 2.14.7-0ubuntu8 Architecture: i386 ArecordDevices: Error: [Errno 2] No such file or directory CRDA: Error: [Errno 2] No such file or directory DistroRelease: Ubuntu 14.10 HibernationDevice: RESUME=UUID=5a5d0aa4-b8ee-4bf7-b1b9-761b7d1550b6 InstallationDate: Installed on 2014-10-31 (37 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu-Server 14.10 "Utopic Unicorn" - Release i386 (20141022.2) IwConfig: lo no wireless extensions. eth0 no wireless extensions.
