>Description:
/etc/rc.d/savecore is executed when ${dumpdev} is set in
/etc/rc.conf. And savecore is invoked from /etc/rc.d/savecore without
${dumpdev}. But no vmcore.0 is available after panic if ${dumpdev} is
not same as the first swap partition.
>How-To-Repeat:
In /etc/rc.conf two parameters are set:
dumpdev="/dev/ad1s1e"
dumpdir="/home/crash" # my /var is short
$ sudo savecore /home/crash
checking for kernel dump on device /dev/da2s1b
mediasize = 209715200
sectorsize = 512
magic mismatch on last dump header on /dev/da2s1b
savecore: no dumps found
where /dev/da2s1b is the first swap partition set in /etc/fstab.
>Fix:
