On rc.conf, I have: dumpdev="/dev/wd0s1b" # Device name to crashdump to (if enabled). Usually config and build a kernel as: config -g CIOLOCO cd /sys/compile/CIOLOCO make cp kernel kernel.debug strip -d kernel make install fastboot Instructions on how to do a postmortem analysis is on /usr/share/doc/handbook/handbook.html Cheers, Amancio To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
