I've blogged a bit about this and wrote the wiki page.  However, the
last time I actually tried to use kdump it wasn't working.  I don't
remember the details.  I know I could boot another kernel immediately,
but if I loaded a crash kernel it wouldn't actually boot on a panic.

It would be nice to have a more official solution for this on Gentoo.
I don't mind messing around with it.  I don't have a ton of time but
if you want to take the lead I can try to pitch in a bit.
