I am new at Linux and I'm trying to install the lkcd patch to be able to
save off dumps and look at them with lcrash.  However, after applying the
patch to the kernel and saving off the dump I get the error "kernel_magic
mismatch of map and memory image".  I'm sure it is something I'm doing, but
I do not know what.  I also tried lcrash on the running kernel and I still
get the same error.  I have looked through the mailing list a bit and I
cannot find the same problem.  

I did look at the code and I see where it compares the kernel_magic to _end,
and prints out this error when these are not the same.  How can I make the
two the same?  - Do I need to go in and manually modify the numbers?

I am applying it to a Caldera 2.4.8 kernel using arch ia64.

Any help would be appreciated.
