Hi,

I have made some changes to my kernel and I am trying to install the new
kernel.

I have configured the kernel using config -f.

While booting, the kernel panics with pagefault and repeatedly reboots. My
question is how do I get a crash dump of the kernel? How do I find the
problem?

Here the log message that came on the screen before rebooting:

Fatal Trap 12: Page fault while in kernel mode

fault virtual address = 0x20

fault code = supervisor write, page not present

Instruction Pointer = 0x8:0xf0194e2f
stack pointer = 0x10:0xf3357d4c
frame Pointer = 0x10:0xf3357dcc
code segment = base 0x0, limit 0xfffff, type 0x1b
             = DPL 0, pres 1, def 32 1, gram 1

processor ef flags = interrupt enabled, resume IOPL = 0

current process = 149 (sendmail)

Interrupt mask = 

trap number  = 12

Panic: page fault

What does the current process sendmail means? Is it the one under problem?
How do I get a dump of this kernel? How do I debug this?

Kernel version is: 3.1 FreeBSD

thanks in Advance
