Well, first you will need to modify the netboot image. Secondly, you will need to share a file < 2GB with root access over NFS. Then, here's a script I added to /etc/inittab: #!/sbin/sh # Add the following to /etc/inittab: #dump::sysinit:/dodadump>>/dev/console 2<>/dev/console </dev/console # And fix this to rever to a local server; for 32 bit systems, the # core file needs to be < 2GB. /sbin/mount -F nfs -o vers=3 A.B.C.D:/path/to/dump /mnt /usr/sbin/swap -a /mnt Where A.B.C.D is the IPv4 address (dotted quad) of the server and you need to swap on the file or else it won't be a dump device. No guarantee it won't panic earlier. Oh and make sure there's "set kmem_flags = 0xf" in /etc/system >but of course as you pointed it could crash before it's possible to >core over the net... Yep.
