I had an unrelated delay in posting this due to some strange behavior of late with LILO and my ext3-mounted /boot partition (/sbin/lilo would say that it updated, but a subsequent reboot would not include my new kernel) The patches are available for download from OSDL's patch lifecycle manager ( http://www.osdl.org/cgi-bin/plm/ ). Patch stack for kexec for 2.5.69: kexec base for 2.5.69: http://www.osdl.org/cgi-bin/plm?module=patch_info&patch_id=1828 kexec hwfixes for 2.5.69: http://www.osdl.org/cgi-bin/plm?module=patch_info&patch_id=1829 kexec usemm change (allowed 2-way to work for me): http://www.osdl.org/cgi-bin/plm?module=patch_info&patch_id=1830 optional change to defconfig (sets CONFIG_KEXEC=y): http://www.osdl.org/cgi-bin/plm?module=patch_info&patch_id=1831 The patches are also available (with matching kexec-tools-1.8) from this link pending a crontab update: http://www.osdl.org/archive/andyp/kexec/2.5.69/ Andrew Morton's tree now also contains kexec, and you can pick up his patch here: http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.5/2.5.69/ I'll put together another release area for a matching kexec-tools for -mm trees (different kexec syscall number between 2.5.* and 2.5.*-mm*) as soon as I get -mm trees built and booted on my kexec test machines. Regards, Andy To All: if you try kexec, a quick reply of success or failure to fastboot@osdl.org would be appreciated. If it doesn't work for you, please include the output of lspci in your email.
