Hi Dave,

Thanks for your info regarding kexec tool.

I am unable to download kexec from below link.

http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/horms/kexec-tools/kexec-tools.tar.gz

It says HTTP 404 Page Not Found.

Could you please guide me on this?

Thanks & Regards,
Amar Shankar

Right -- just the first make command will suffice, i.e., when running
on an x86_64 host:

$ wget http://people.redhat.com/anderson/crash-6.0.4.tar.gz
$ tar xzf crash-6.0.4.tar.gz
...
$ cd crash-6.0.4
$ make target=X86
...
$ ./crash <path-to>/vmlinux <path-to>/vmcore
