I've been doing some relative work with the Green Hills probe and a Malta 4kc. The configuration of the kernel I am using requires parameters to be passed in to the kernel to tell it were to find the root device (ie root=/dev/hda1). To make things simple, I would load using YAMON, connect with the debugger, then set a breakpoint in a section of the kernel I was interested in, then run using the YAMON command go . root=/dev/hda1. I plan to eventually figure out where it is being written to memory and just write it myself after downloading the image through the probe. There are many other issues you might run into when using Linux with a probe. We have updated the GHS probe firmware to behave nicely with Linux. This helps when debugging loadable device drivers, etc. I will forward your email to our Linux integration engineers to see what other issues you might run into. They have more experience with the Malta 5kc.
