I'm having trouble connecting to the target via the serial console, I get a bunch of error messages when attempt to connect to kgdb first via a command line. (It didn't work from standard Eclipse IDE, and that doesn't give much info, but the command line does, thought CCS might have some better support for this, but guess I have to resolve the command line connectivity issues first before using the IDE.) Here is what I've done. I have the following u-boot environment variables set, for the console and mmcargs bootargs # setenv console ttyS2,115200n8 # setenv mmcargs 'setenv bootargs console=${console} vram=12M omapfb.vram=0:4M omapfb.mode=dvi:${dvimode} omapdss.def_disp=${defaultdisplay} root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 rw rootfstype=ext3 rootwait init=/init kgdboc=${console} kgdbwait' Testing it quickly with kermit gives the expected response console [ttyS2] enabled kgdb: Registered I/O driver kgdboc. kgdb: Waiting for connection from remote gdb... I have on the target board, ttys2, the TI OMAP 3503 serial port configured as the debug console. and the board that I have has an FTDI to USB converter. This when connected to the host appears as /dev/ttyUSB0 I then log in as root, after closing all previous sessions, power on the target hardware (Gumstix Overo Earth TI OMAP 3503 based platform), and then type the following commands, but get a bunch or error messages. # su # cd /tool/overo-oe/tmp/staging/overo-angstrom-linux-gnueabi/kernel # arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi-gdb GNU gdb (GDB) 7.0 Copyright (C) 2009 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
