:After installation of dragonfly in vmware i got the following kernel
:panic on reboot

:Additionally, when i entered 'call dumpsys' it returned '0xc1d3dc00'
:I chose default options in the installer except for swap size (changed
:from 2GB to 512MB) and keymap (changed to us.dvorak).
:vmware-server version: 1.0.1.29996-r4

    I think it's trying to write out a core file for a seg-faulted user
    process after it has dismounted /, which is too late in the reboot
    sequence.  The question is: is that the init process, the process
    that called 'reboot', or something else?  A 'ps' from the DDB prompt
    might give us a hint.

    Call dumpsys never works right.  If dumps are enabled, just typing
    'panic' from the DDB prompt and hitting return twice should be enough.
