What’s the easiest way to get kernel crash dumps on EOS?
kdump on archwiki assumes the system is using mkinitcpio and initramfs/vmlinuz in /boot. Same with simple-kdump. kdumpts assumes the system uses grub.
I’m trying to debug whats causing a fatal kernel panic when resuming from suspend, interrupt error. This started after some update. My hunch is either GPU drivers or kernel, but this is just guessing. The problem is a bit sporadic, with uptime seemingly increasing chance of it appearing. Thus I’d rather look at the memory dump directly / bisect kernel rather than guess where the problem is. dmesg/journalctl do not show anything related to this.
I’m more used to F around memory dumps on Gentoo using classical /boot etc, never had to run these on EOS
System is EOS base install with systemd-boot. Dracut running on default settings. Beyond that, the system is quite heavily customized. HW tested OK. I just need that kernel dump.
Kernel configs and crashkernel= required are set.
