I would like to know how I can get more information out of the dump. The system's gdb does not like the dump format any more, see also bin/38236. There is an advertised workaround in that pr of using gdb52, but I couldn't get that to work ("not a core dump: File format not recognized"). Am I missing something? How do you guys read your dumps? -- Regards, Georg. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
