Message-ID: <20020630094255.A13008@attbi.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline User-Agent: Mutt/1.2.5i X-SW-Source: 2002-06/txt/msg00328.txt.bz2 Hi, I have a laptop computer, a Winbook N3: http://www.winbookcorp.com/support/n3/n3_support.html I have Windows XP pre-installed on it, and am interested in installing either FreeBSD or Linux on a separate hard drive, and using gdb to do remote debugging on another host, for kernel/device driver development. This computer does not have a DB-9 or DB-25 serial port, but it does have ports for USB, Firewire, parallel, and PS/2 port. Would I be able to use gdb for remote debugging over any of these ports? I don't think I would be able to do remote debugging over Ethernet, because I am interested in debugging network protocol stacks. Thanks. -- Craig Rodrigues http://www.gis.net/~craigr rodrigc@attbi.com
