Any suggestion on what/how to get info on hardware? (I recall an
app added in F9, I think, that sent info to redhat - but I forget
the name)
Smolt. But I wasn't talking about a large hardware dump, just
information on things like the hard disks you have, any existing
RAID/LVM configuration. Again, that stuff is in the bug report so
it's maybe less important than giving the developer a thumbnail of
what you were doing when the error happened. You sent the bug report
already, which is a great thing and commendable. Thanks for seeing it
through.
