Title: [RFE] Enable makedumpfile invocation from initramfs Status in kdump-tools package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: [Request] To be able to call makedumpfile at the from the initramfs, instead of doing so after rootfs is active/mounted. [Justification] Systems with too much memory will demand higher amounts of memory for the crashkernel parameter, as well as having less systemd units up and running before makedumpfile kicks in. The idea is to use as little memory as possible in the kernel dump generation. [Workaround] Tailoring the postinst.d/kdump-tools hooks can have makedumpfile be called earler. Although feasible, that's too much of a "hack", and this could ideally be embedded in kdump-tools as an option. [Regressions] TBE.
