| Doc Text: |
Feature:
In the new version of the kexec-tools package, kdump checks if the initramfs image can be created in /boot. If the check fails, the /var/lib/kdump directory is used instead to create the initramfs image.
Reason:
On some operating systems, the /boot directory can be read-only, preventing the initramfs image file from being created in /boot.
Result:
SELinux supports kdump creating initramfs images in /var/lib/kdump.
