[Crash-utility] using crash for ARM

Hi,
I got the crash up on the target but I get following error.

WARNING: kernels compiled by different gcc versions:
  ./vmlinux: (unknown)
  live system kernel: 4.4.3
crash: cannot open secondary temporary file

I have taken System.map and vmlinux from the same build path.

Regards,
Oza.

If you are talking about running crash on a live ARM system, then
option #1 is the only possibility.  Option #2 does not exist for
the crash utility; live system access requires either /dev/mem,
/proc/kcore, or the /dev/crash misc driver.
