This core le is a \snapshot" of the previously running k ernel at the time that it panicked. If it becomes necessary , this core le can be analyzed using special tools to determine more about what caused the panic.
Note Core les are quite large and are sa ved to the directory /tmp/syscore . If you feel you need to save these les for
future analysis (something that isn't usually required), it is best to save them to tape and remo ve them from your le system in order to free up space. If y ou know why your system panicked, you can delete the core les; it is unnecessary to k eep them. The core les are used in rare circumstances to diagnose

changes by writing o ver them with the corrupt memory buers. |
