Hi,



I was added the support for mini kernel dump mechanism to kernel (i386).

loaded the mkexec module and did the following 



echo 2 > /proc/mkexec/stats



it booted well to mini kernel and started the dumping the memory pages 

After some time (~after dumping 1GB ) it hangs there and not proceeding.



Can any one please help me here.
