Hi Stephan,

first off, thanks very much for your continuing help on this. It's very much appreciated.

I compiled a kernel with exactly the same options that you cited below. I tried booting it and it stops before the kernel probe routines and waits for the FireWire GDB connect.
I can't understand how you managed to reboot the target machine without it entering the debugger and waiting for the remote gdb attach. My machine refuses to do anything else.
I tried unsetting boot_ddb and boot_gdb in the loader, as well as clearing the -d and -g flags in the boot_flags variable. No deal, it still stops and waits for the remote gdb attach.
When I try to attach from the debug machine, gdb complains about operation not supported.


Also, I don't understand how your command line

kgdb -r :5555 -t 11-22-33-44-55...

D'oh... What I meant was:

kgdb -r :5555 kernel.debug

<sigh>. Time to go home I suppose...


can work. I just get

':5555: no such file or directory'

when I try that. The kgdb manpage also states that it needs a device
