I don't think kexec works for ppc-32 arch/powerpc at the present.
We have been working on kexec/kdump support for 32-bit arch/powerpc.
It requires changes both to the kernel and to the kexec-tools package.

I plan to post a first round of patches to linuxppc-dev early next week.

Kexec on powerpc

2007-11-15 Thread marco . stornelli
Hi all,

I'm using the latest kernel and I need the kexec support for 85xx
processor. When I use the menuconfig with ARCH=ppc and the 85xx and
e500 support, I have the kexec support, but when I use ARCH=powerpc I
haven't it, but I'm selecting the same processor!! Is it a bug in
kconfig? Somebody can explain to me why?

Thanks in advance.

Marco
