No, I am looking for the corresponding vmlinux file, i need to get the
objdump of the kernel symbols for some debugging.
Though i was able to reproduce the issue on mainline later and debug it,
i would still like to know where can i find the "statically linked, not
stripped" kernel executable a.k.a vmlinux for ubuntu 8.10.
Thanks,
Alok
