Hi,

I've had weird behaviour when using 5.3-RELEASE and using KDB (it would 
try to boot /kernel, which is 4.X behavior), so I'm asking for anyone's 
confirmation on the right kernel options / rc.conf stuff for a debugging 
+ panic saving kernel. Is this correct? ->

@ kernel:

makeoptions DEBUG=-g
KDB
KDB_UNATTENDED

@ rc.conf:

dumpdev="/dev/ad0s1b"

Using these, should the server ever panic, I'll have a vmcore waiting on 
/var/crash , correct ?

I'm using 5.4-STABLE.
