Yes, I see this string: NetBSD 7.99.30 (CGDDEBUG) #0: Thu Jun 16 19:40:27 BST 2016 alnsn@neva:/home/alnsn/netbsd-current/clean/src/sys/arch/amd64/compile/obj/CGDDEBUG This is the kernel I was running. The disk was initially filled with random bits and CGDDEBUG kernel didn't exist back then. So maybe it did get written, but there's just something funny about it. If you pass -v to savecore, can you find what aspect of the dump savecore doesn't like?
