Re: [vox-tech] replace running kernel with new one
Quoting Tony Cratz (cr...@hematite.com): Before my friend Hugh Daniels passed away he mention there was a way to fork/exec/chain a new kernel to replace the current running kernel. Due to his passing, I never did learn how. ksplice. ___ vox-tech mailing list vox-tech@lists.lugod.org http://lists.lugod.org/mailman/listinfo/vox-tech

Quoting Tony Cratz (cr...@hematite.com): ksplice. At first glance this did not really help. But on one of the pages I found what I was looking for. Kexec is the command I wanted. ksplice and kexec are both ways to replace one running kernel with another running kernel without a full reboot and with continuous uptime. ksplice is older and has now been emborged by Oracle, Inc. -- which, come to think of it, may have inspired the development of kexec as an alternative approach. ___ vox-tech mailing list vox-tech@lists.lugod.org http://lists.lugod.org/mailman/listinfo/vox-tech
