is there a way to find out which kernel was used to boot (vmunix vs vmunix.prev)TIA

Run this ..
# echo 'boot_string/S' | adb /stand/vmunix /dev/mem
boot_string:
boot_string: disc(56/52.5.0;0)/stand/vmunix.prev

Hi Rusty:

# echo 'boot_string/S'|adb /stand/vmunix /dev/kmem

Regards!

that worked on 11.0 but not on our 10.20 box. is there a different command/syntax for 10.20?

Hi (again) Rusty:

I have no trouble on either 10.20 or 11.0. You might try '/dev/mem' if '/dev/kmem' doesn't work.

Hi,

On my 10.20 it has worked,

echo "boot_string/S"|adb /stand/vmunix /dev/kmem

Hope this helps.
