Probably an odd question, but, as I have said many times before, I'm
more than a little bit rusty on this stuff. I know I can use gdb to

CentOS.
Please advise.
Using gdb to debug the kernel is not an easy trick. You will need
a kgdb patch for the kernel, and 2 computers. 1 for running the kernel,
and one for the debuger. These computers should be connected using a
serial (RS232) cable.
Would VMWare let you run the kernel you're debugging in a VM and watch it
from the host?
