....but then the system just hung there, no more messages, I had to<br>
powercycle it.<br>

The --debug options is listed for "dol-ppc" systems (I have a PowerBook<br>
G4, not sure if this falls into this category), when I use it the help<br>
screen of kexec is displayed again and at the bottom:<br>
<br>
Cannot load /boot/2.6/zImage<br>

This is with 2.6.34-rc7 (today's git):<br>
<br>
