  Hi,
    I am trying to take the kerenl core dump on kernel panic , the system
start taking the dump and on rebooting found that three files are created .
1) Kernel.0.z
2) panic.0
3) vmcore.0.z

but the size of vmcore is 0 byte :(

Is there any check on the size of swapdevice is done when the kenel core
dumping starts?


Thanks,
Romil Shah
