Crashdump?  If you can tell me how to get one out of a 4gig server, I'll
gladly get one for you ... its not the first time she's crashed, nor do I
expect it to be the last ;(

Actually, I have a file system with 8gig of space on it right now:

Filesystem     1K-blocks     Used    Avail Capacity  Mounted on
/dev/amrd1s1a   66972328 54713191  8240798    87%    /v1

Any way of using that for the crash dump?  Its a remote server, so I can't
use DDB on this :(
