To follow up on this, I'm not sure if my initial mail was clear - the beginning of the dump will actually look like this: DUMPINFO dumpinfo_size=0x1000 page_size=0x1000 dev_bsize=0x200 dumplo=0x6c0020 kernbase=0xc0000000 MAPPINGS 0x0 0x27ffc END then zeroes (or garbage) all the way to the actual dump, which begins at offset (dumplo * dev_bsize + dumpinfo_size). In other words, the chunk list is *part* of the DUMPINFO block. I might actually remove "MAPPINGS\n" altogether and just prefix every chunk line with @ or something.
