Subject: In init script, redirect core files to known writable directory in Xen
X-Git-Url: https://pintos-os.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=9265d75e35ee9f748f5e392c828489153693ffe6;p=openvswitch

In init script, redirect core files to known writable directory in Xen

"Embedded" XenServers don't have a writable "/" directory.  For now
point cores to /var/log, which is known to be writable.
