This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for inclusion in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux major release. Product Management has requested further review of this request by Red Hat Engineering, for potential inclusion in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux Major release. This request is not yet committed for inclusion.
I'm not able to reproduce the bug with step from comment #1. But I reproduced similar issue when I manually changed command line options on Expert settings card. I changed from "crashkernel=192M" to "crashkernel=aa192M" and change focus to another widget, then the error appears in terminal (no crash). How should s-c-kdump react on that? Error message? Silently change that to some valid value? Something else?
Possible values are 1) auto 2) X@Y 3) X where auto is string X is numeric value with optional M suffix Y is optional value with optional M suffix I will add check for the above possibilities.
Should be fixed in system-config-kdump-2.0.2.1-14.el6
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Beta 2 is now available and should resolve the problem described in this bug report. This report is therefore being closed with a resolution of CURRENTRELEASE. You may reopen this bug report if the solution does not work for you.
