--------- IT WILL STUCK HERE-----------

I waited around 30 min but it will be stuck here only.
To get the prompt(console) back we need to reboot the lpar. 

After reboot i tried installing kdump package again and i saw this:

root@highlp2:~# apt-get install linux-crashdump
E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
root@highlp2:~#

I did "dpkg --configure -a" here and tried installing kdump package
(linux-crashdump) and it says package is already installed.

I checked kdump service here and it says kdump is active:

root@highlp2:~# /etc/init.d/kdump-tools status
? kdump-tools.service - Kernel crash dump capture service
   Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/kdump-tools.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled)

I have tried installing another ubuntu15.04 lpar with cdrom as well but everytime kdump package installation will get stuck here and we need a reboot after this.


Steps to recreate:

1> Install ubuntu15.04 lpar
2> login to lpar as root
3> apt-get install linux-crashdump
