Following my last week's post: Host crashing when transferring large files (>100MB) over from my 4.7-RELEASE vmware host to a remote SMB server: ------------- I have added the following to my kernel config: makeoptions DEBUG=-g options DDB Then did: cd /usr/src && make clean && make cleandir && make buildkernel kernconf=KERNEL && make installkernel kernconf=KERNEL (however, there arent two copies of kernel built as described by the FAQ (/kernel and /kernel.debug) I edited my /etc/rc.conf to the following: dumpdev="/dev/ad2s1e" dumpdir="/var/crash" HOWEVER, my /var/crash doesnt contain any core dumps, even after multiple panics ( i simple copied over some large files to a remote host to crash my 4.7-RELEASE) Even did a "dumpon /dev/ad2s1e" to no avail. I can confirm that /dev/ad2s1e exists and is of 1024MB partition, whereas my system memory is 768MB. Did I leave anything out?
