With BDI can you let your target run freely and dump the PC ...

I found just letting my target run and dumping my PC and using some
strategically place endless loops helped me get my kernel running ...

You are setting your breakpoint at 0x0c000000.  Linux in virtual memory
starts at 0xc0000000.  Am I missing something?

I finally got my BDI-2000 for PPC 860 this week, and tried to set it up to
debug my MMU problem.
This is my first time using the BDI-2000, and really hope someone here can
give me a hand.

I am able to check and modify the SRAM (at physical address location 0x0).
and view the bootROM memory
(at physical address of 0x28000000).  I enable the MMU XLAT and set the
PTBASE to 0xf0 as suggested in the
user manual.
Here is the output of the BDI

BDI>reset

I never seem to get the break at the location of 0x0c000000.
The same problem if I set the break at location of start_here grep from
System.map

However I do get the break if I set at address location of 0 (start of the
head_8xx.S)
