I don't see any fundamental issue with providing a NET_WAIT_TIME variable (probably should be namespaced to KDUMP_) in the kdump config file, but:

1) this seems like a hack to work around slow hardware, right?

2) it can't be automatically deduced, afaict. Or do you want to have 30s delays (potentially) on all POWER machines?

3) I'm not 100% familiar with the 'upstream' of kdump-tools -- is this something that we'd need to carry forever in the Debian/Ubuntu packaging?
