I may be mistaken, but I don't think you actually need to boot the debug-kernel

for being read by kgdb while debugging a core that is generated by savecore(8)
so that you have access to full symbol table etc. this page section in the dev
handbook debugging kernel core dumps:

Yes, you are right.
However obvious it may seem, it isn’t for somebody who’s never really done that…
I asked the same question in my PR and got an answer immediately - didn’t
expect that to go that fast…
great, glad i'm not spreading mis-info! i don't think it's too obvious
IMHO, took me a while to grok it a year or so ago when i was debugging
some graphics driver issues :)
