Hello,
Iam just setting up my home server with a mirrored RAIDframe root.
Now I'm not a NetBSD developer and I wouldn't know how to debug a
kernel crash dump, even if it came after me with fork and knife, so is
there any reason why I should bother setting up kernel dumps, as it is
mentioned in the guide [1]?
Is there any other reason or is it save to just use swap inside of the
raid and not having space for crash dumps?
Cheers
Felix
