Is it possible to use any kind of debugger tool for a boot loader
program (which typically reads from a boot order file and loads the OS
from the corresponding memory location) ? I was wondering if I can hav
breakpoints and step thru' the bootloader program using a tool as
debugger to study wats happening.
I think this is more or less equivalent to asking:
Do any of the (x86) emulators (qemu, bochs, valgrind, etc) have a
debugging interface,
via which one could single-step, set breakpoints, etc.
Im unaware of any, but that means little.
