Success!! Thanks for the replies. Here's a brief summary of what was
necessary to get things working.

I'm trying to get a BDI2000 (firmware v1.09) working in
order to debug a kernel module.
I'm using an Embedded Planet RPXlite MPC850 board running
kernel v2.4.20
...

Am I missing something obvious ? Is this the right way to
go about debugging
a loadable module ? Any help would be gratefully appreciated.
There were a couple of changes / extensions to the MMU support.
Firmware version 1.09 is pretty old (Aug 2001). You might want to try
a more recent one.
OK. I couldn't find any firmware on the Abatron web-site but fortunately
I've been sent v1.12 from a friend. This seems to make all the difference.
I was able to make some minor progress with the addition of "PTBASE 0xF0" to
my config file (as suggested by Dan) however the key seems to have been the
upgraded firmware in the BDI2000.
I'm not entirely sure the soft breakpoints are working correctly yet (I
suspect they probably are) but anyway I can make sufficient progress using
hard breakpoints for now.
Thanks for the assistance.
