 Hi Garrett=2C
 
 
 I just tried to perform a kernel dump with dumpdev=3D"YES" and had no luck=
 =2C I keep getting:
 
 
 Cannot dump. Device not defined or unavailable.
 
 
 my custom kernel is set to disable:
 
 
 #options        KTRACE                  # ktrace(1) support
 
 #options        KDTRACE_FRAME           # Ensure frames are compiled in
 #options        KDTRACE_HOOKS           # Kernel DTrace hooks
 
 
 must recompile kernel to enable tracing?=20
 
 
 I'm currently using the intel pro 1000 chipset / em0 driver=2C I've been ex=
 periencing all sorts of network stability problems for a while now(ever sin=
 ce I upgrade to stable a month ago). It looks like the em0 driver for amd64=
  needs alot of work however a couple of days ago when I recompiled my box t=
 o the latest stable 8.1-prerelease I saw alot of improvments and my ipfw/du=
 mmynet firewall seems to be running stable with no crashes/lockups so far..=
 .=20
 
 
 It is very easy for me to replicate the in nat kernel problem=2C i just can=
 t get a dump to provide you the additional info.
 
 
 Let me know how I can help.
 
 
 
 
 Thanks=2C
 Shant K
