Doesn't savecore know which partition it should dump to? if not -- how
does it can it find out if the partition is full without trying to write?

$ mkdir /tmp/c
/: write failed, file system is full
mkdir: c: No space left on device

is it possible to do something similar here? Or is this msg generated by
the kernel?
