Boot2dump is a new tiny operating system written by me, which is specialized for saving a crash dump. Once Kerla panics, it jumps into the boot2dump's boot code. Boot2dump reads an ext4 filesytem in a virtio-blk device, saves the dump into a file and then it resets the computer. It's an already working mechanism in my deployment in DigitalOcean!
