Eric,
I have a patch set available for kexec for 2.5.65. I have checked it on
a 2-way system and it worked as expected. There were no changes
required, and the previous version of kexec-tools worked without
modification.
The patches are available for download from OSDL's patch lifecycle
manager ( http://www.osdl.org/cgi-bin/plm/ ).
