Hello, I don't seem to be able to generate a crash dump on -CURRENT. I was getting a kernel trap (I have DDB enabled). From the debugger I entered `panic', but I got another trap. `Continue' got me back to the first trap and repeated `panic' rebooted the machine w/o dumping anything. I tried setting the dumpdev variable in loader, to both, `disk3s1b' (after `curdev') or `ad1s3b' (/dev/ad1s3b is the swap partition). The swap partition is larger than the physical memory. Disabling DDB didn't help. I have read the Handbook. What am I doing wrong? Krzysztof To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
