Kdump kernel (the 2nd kernel) sometimes hungs up.
Issue
-
This problem occurs once every 15 times when vmcore is gathered on PRIMEQUEST 1800E.
-
And, the environment in which this problem occurs uses "Legacy Boot" (conventional BIOS) to avoid another problem.
-
At present, this problem has not been reproduced on other machines.
- Additionally, the phenomena occurred so far only on Intel64. I have not confirmed whether this phenomena occurs on x86.

The above-mentioned message is displayed and the system hangs up. And the last message displayed before hang-up differs each time the problem occurs.
