Hi all,
I had found out how to enable i386 GDB to understand ARM format =
executable file.
Just:
	1. cd /usr/src/gnu/dist/gdb
	2. ./configure --host=3Di386-unknown-netbsdelf1.6.2 =
--target=3Darm-unknown-netbsdelf1.6.2
	3. make

Regards,
Colin

Subject: remote debug from i386


Hi all,
I want to remote debug the embedded kernel from PC now.
When I built up a kernel supporting KGDB and was ready to debug it, I =
found that i386 gdb seems not understand the ARM format executable file.
	> gdb netbsd.gdb
	....
	....
	warning: unknown architecture file may be incompatible with i386 =
target.
	Dwarf Error: Cannot handle DW_FORM_strp in DWARF reader.

If I try to make "step" or "stepi" commands in gdb, something would be =
wrong.
So I'd like to know, is it possible to remote debug an ARM kernel in =
embedded device from i386 PC?

Thanks and regards,
Colin
