You haven't mentioned Linux before so I assumed you had a board with a
monitor or something (an embedded target).

How did you configure your gdb after all (i.e., what was the configure
command you used)?

Have you run make install?  What is in your bin directory?

I have the file gdb 5.0 . I had to make changes in the gdb/makefile to
enable the target rdi debugging.

When I had done ./configure in the main directory, it was configuring gdb
for host i686 and target also i686, where as I want the target to be my
Cirrus Logic Arm 7500FE Baord. I do not know how to sepcify the exact
option for this arm processor. Currently the board has only the ANGEL
debugger program running.

I already have the vmlinux, and the zImage files for the Linxu kernel
2.3.99 . My host PC is RedHat 6.1 and i686 architecture.

I am using the gdb mainly for downloading the image files into the RAM on
my target baord from my Host PC.

I hope you could provide me with some suggestions.

Thanks
