For what it's worth, the crash utility got a little exposure in the October
issue of Linux Magazine.

In its "Gearheads" section, Sreekrishnan Venkateswaran of IBM India
wrote a 5-page article titled "Using kexec and kdump".  The first 2 pages
were specific to the use of kexec/kdump, but the last 3 pages were
dedicated to crash utility debugging sessions on two sample kdump
vmcores.

Of course, given the magazine's two-column-per-page output,
crash's 80-column output gets mercilessly wrapped, and looks
like hell...

But hey, any publicity is good I guess...
