I just found a coff-tic54x.c file in the BFD library - I just made an honest
guess, that it might be used to read C54x COFF files. Does anybody know how to
use this? - I need to setup my target and really don't know how... Is there a
list of targets somewhere?.

OK - Starting to make sense :-D. But how do I load the target specific file
into the GDB? - Again I need to setup my target, but how?.

Cool ;-). Still feel a bit lost though...
