I have a lpar installed with ubuntu 15.04.I enabled kdump and on reboot getting
error message "Cannot open `/boot/vmlinuz`".
Steps to recreate:
1. Install ubuntu 15.04 (netboot)
2. sudo passwd root
3. apt-get update, apt-get install openssh-server, apt-get nfs-common
4. service ssh restart
5. apt-get install linux-crashdump:
??????????????????????????? Configuring kexec-tools ??????????????????????????
? ?
? If you choose this option, a system reboot will trigger a restart into a ?
? kernel loaded by kexec instead of going through the full system boot ?
? loader process. ?
? ?
? Should kexec-tools handle reboots? ?
? ?
? <Yes> <No> ?
? ?
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
Selected "Yes"
6. vi /etc/default/grub.d/kexec-tools.cfg (set crashkernel=1024M)
7. update-grub
8. reboot

On ppc, it should be looking for a file "vmlinux", not "vmlinuz". The former
is the filename on the ppc distributions, the latter on amd64.
Can you try editing the grub.cfg to see if that fixes it?
if so, it's possible that whichever package modified the grub.cfg here,
cannot handle the ppc case and need to be patched

I think the issue is with /etc/default/kexec file and not grub.cfg.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
kexec:
# Defaults for kexec initscript
# sourced by /etc/init.d/kexec and /etc/init.d/kexec-load
# Load a kexec kernel (true/false)
LOAD_KEXEC=true
# Kernel and initrd image
KERNEL_IMAGE="/boot/vmlinuz"
INITRD="/boot/initrd.img"
# If empty, use current /proc/cmdline
APPEND=""
# Load the default kernel from grub config (true/false)
USE_GRUB_CONFIG=false
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here KERNEL_IMAGE="/boot/vmlinuz" instead of "/boot/vmlinux". I changed
vmlinuz to vmlinux, did a reboot and issue did not occur.
