Kernel Crash Dumps

[Brian Murray]

In reviewing the kernel debugging documentation I came across the
instructions for saving a crash dump for a kernel panic[1].  I tried
following them and I'm unable to generate a crash dump.  Additionally,
that page hadn't been touched in quite some time.  I've also found a bug
report[2] about another person having an issue getting crash dumps.

So my question is - is there something wrong with the documentation?
the crash dump process? or me?
