Hello, I have an applicance running Linux, and it does not have a monitor / mouse / keyboard. It communicates over the serial port (ttyS0). I am trying to get kgdb over serial running on this machine. The appliance is running 2.4.31. I have successfull put all kgdb patches, even been able to bring up the kernel. I have a few questions: 1. Is it possible to get kgdb working on this machine over ttyS0, since Linux uses it to interface with outside world. If not, any pointers how I can get kgdb working on this box. (For now, I am not able to use kgdb over Ethernet). 2. Is it possible to have all the Linux boot up messages and output appear within gdb (running on development machine) I am doing the following steps for now: 1. Use Minicom to connect to appliance, get it botted up. 2. Halt it (using gdbstart). 3. Disconnect Minicom 4. Start gdb, try to connect to target machine, but get msg - "Malformed response to offset query". Thank you, Aha. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam?
