Re: kgdb and mpc8xx (again)

In message <1047318121.29389.44.camel@muse> you wrote:

If i run ppc-linux-gdb instead of kermit, i get

and the board restarts itself.

I have no idea why. Maybe:

1.- It's something related with some console output (don't know if
enabling kgdb disables all the console output in SMC1).

No.

2.- A watchdog timeout happens (Does the kgdb code resets the
watchdog?).

If your watchdog has not been disabled by the boot loader,  you  have
absolutely  no  chance to debug the system using kgdb. Either disable
the watchdog, or use a BDI2000.

3.- Do I have to do a "set endian xxx" in ppc-linux-gdb ??? (to get that

You don't.

I'm using the denx kernel from the cvs and ppc-linux-gdb from ELDK 2.0.2
(on a x86 development machine)

You should use ppc_8xx-gdb as documented.
