base.install: Add kexec tools and kernel debug packages #141

Closed goldyfruit closed 10 years ago

goldyfruit commented 10 years ago

Add the kexec support for Debian and RedHat like distributions. With kexec mechanism, we can use the kdump program to get a crashdump if the system panic.

Packages added:

kdump-tools (Debian)
linux-image-XXX-dbg (Debian)
kexec-tools (RHEL)
kernel-debuginfo (RHEL)
linux-crashdump (Ubuntu)

Thanks for the PR. I do agree for kexec & kdump but adding the dbg inside the base seems overkill as it will increase the image size too much.

Please move the dbg stuff in the prod packages but keep the other here.

Thanks,
