[Crash-utility] crash fails with incompatible arguments on current kernel

[Sebastian Ott]

Hi,

crash seems to be a victim of the linux version number change. On a
live system it fails with:
WARNING: kernels compiled by different gcc versions:
  /root/data/git.linux-2.6/vmlinux: (unknown)
  live system kernel: 4.5.3

WARNING: kernel version inconsistency between vmlinux and live memory

crash: incompatible arguments:
   /root/data/git.linux-2.6/vmlinux is not SMP -- live system is SMP

as a workaround I've used:
---
