Hi,

I am working on Android sources (Gingerbread).

Referring to Linux "Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt in Android sources, I am having 2 queries.


1.       Install kexec-tools
I have downloaded kexec tool(kexec-tools-2.0.3) from http://horms.net/projects/kexec/.

The procedure mentions to configure and build kexect tool.

     With that it will build for Linux Ubuntu-dev 2.6.32-38-generic, since I am using Linux Ubuntu 10.04 on host machine.

But I need to build it for Android. So is there any specific option which I need to pass for this.

Also after building kexec tool, how do install it in my Android sources.


2.
{{{
Boot into System Kernel
=======================

1) Update the boot loader (such as grub, yaboot, or lilo) configuration
   files as necessary.
}}}

Since, I am working on Android (Gingerbread) sources, Could you let me know which is the bootloader
configuration file in this case?

Thanks & Regards,
Amar Shankar
