Update source package to diskdumputils-1.2.8.tar.gz:
  - Update README file re: the configuration of a whole disk device
    as the DEVICE parameter in /etc/sysconfig/diskdump to indicate
    that it can be done only on RHEL3.
  - Update README file to specify that Partial Dump and Compressed
    Dump features cannot be used together on ppc64 machines; they
    can only be used separately.

* Mon Nov 28 18:00:00 2005 Akira Imamura <aimamura{%}redhat{*}com> 1.2.1-2
Updated source package to diskdumputils-1.2.1.tar.gz:
  - If savecore fails, does not re-format the dump partition,
    thereby preserving its contents.  BZ #160545
  - When /etc/sysconfig/diskdump is configured with multiple devices
    in its DEVICE parameter, use them in the left-to-right order
    specified.  BZ #168350
  - Salvage kernel messages that were not written to a log file 
    from the crash dump, and append them to /var/log/messages;
    this feature is enabled by default, but can be disabled by
    setting SALVAGEMESSAGE=no in /etc/sysconfig/diskdump.
    BZ #155992
  - Implements option to create a compressed dumpfile, using a
    new dumpfile format, by adding "options diskdump compress=1" 
    to /etc/modprobe.conf.  BZ #168641
  - Allow the deferral of the post-crash savecore operation
    by setting SKIPSAVECORE=yes in /etc/sysconfig/diskdump,
    and later running "service diskdump enabledevice".
    BZ #168640
  - When running "service diskdump initialformat", the user must
    confirm that each DEVICE specified in /etc/sysconfig/diskdump
    should be formatted.  BZ #168639
  - When running "service diskdump initialformat", and a swap
    partition is configured as a dump device, the swap partition
    should not be formatted.  BZ #170430
