Hello! Yes it is. It turns out that my development system was running a generic 2.6.18 kernel and naturally it (the Kexec function) wasn't turned on. So I ran the make xconfig functions and built in containing that function plus a few others. And it booted back up without the usual issues.
I also found a fairly recent snapshot of the tools for what Eric's Kexec function evolved into. My next steps will be to work with it that way.
I will be presenting more on this later. Oh and thank you Ron for bringing this to my attention. -- Gregg C Levine hansolofalcon@worldnet.att.net "The Force will be with you. Always." Obi-Wan Kenobi

kexec is out there in the kernel and people use it.
You don't need your own version any more.
