Subject: Reg crash utility installation

Hi,
I installed crash2.6 on my machine.
When I give the command "crash" from the prompt it says "no debugging
symbols found in /boot/vmlinux2.2.14-12". Why does this message show.

Thanks in advance,

Regs,

crash relies on debug info and so it needs access to an uncompressed
vmlinux file which was built using -g. The following URL offers more
info:

Hi,

I tried to use kdb on my 2.2.14-12 kernel. I was able to compile the file
/usr/src/linux/arch/i386/kdb/modules/kdbm_vm.c and could get the object
file. When I tried to insert it as a module it givesd the following error
message:

./kdbm_vm.o: kernel-module version mismatch
./kdbm_vm.o was compiled for kernel version .2.14-12
while this kernel is version 2.2.14-12.



Please tell me why this message comes.

Thanks in advance,

Regards,
satish.j

You need to compile with the correct kernel headers using the include
path feature -I <path to new headers>
