Ashish, have you read the FAQ? Read the section "Kernel Crash
Dump Process". Most everything you asked is answered there.
As for system hangs, we haven't created an NMI (non-maskable
interrupt) hook into the hardware to allow people to NMI their
systems and get a memory dump (yet). When that's done, we'll
let you know.
If you have a specific question about how things work, please ask,
but if you're looking for an overview, read the FAQ. We put a lot
of time in it so we wouldn't have to answer generic questions over
and over.
Thanks.
