core dump over NFS?

[vincent wong <vw@hotmail.com>]

Hello:

	I intend to keep my main root filesystem as ramdisk but other things
such as /lib and my main application as residing on a remote NFS
server.  My question is:  in case the main application running amok and
cause core dump, will it necessarily core dump back to the server disk
via NFS, assuming the core dump is not so serious as to render the
kernel braindead?

	If so, do I have to patch the kernel for NFS swap?  I intend to keep
the main root residing on RAMdisk anyway so my NFS mount only plays a
secondary role.

Sincerely,
Billy Leung
