Title:
kdump-config load fails with vmlinux kernel (vs. vmlinuz)
Status in “makedumpfile” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
On ppc64el, there's no vmlinu/z/, only vmlinu/x/.
Thus, kdump-config load fails as follows:
# kdump-config load
Cannot open `/boot/vmlinuz-3.13.0-27-generic': No such file or directory
* failed to load kdump kernel
This small patch (attached) fixes the issue.
It defaults KDUMP_KERNEL to vmlinux if vmlinuz is not found.
# cd /usr/sbin && patch -p1 < ~/kdump-config-vmlinux.patch
patching file kdump-config
# kdump-config load
[...]
* loaded kdump kernel
