First question, why do you think that you do not have a dump? Second
question, do you have anything in the console log when you boot that
indicates a problem with savecore? What happens if you run
'/etc/rc.d/savecore start' ?  Finally, I'm assuming throughout that
your /var/crash directory is on a disk/partition with enough space for
a dump?

Some more things to look at anyways,

Doug
