FWIW, 'show architecture' says: (gdb) show architecture The target architecture is set automatically (currently mips:8000) which i find very pretty. 8-) if you actually force it, it says: (gdb) set architecture mips:8000 The target architecture is assumed to be mips:8000 (gdb) show architecture The target architecture is assumed to be mips:8000 and back to auto: (gdb) set architecture auto The target architecture is set automatically (currently mips:8000) 8-) chris
