So what exactly doesn't work and what does? Are the kernel's symbols
loaded (try 'list printf' e.g. before 'target'-ing)? If it fails, make
sure you load the kernel with symbols included, not the stripped one. If
you used 'makeoptions DEBUG=foo' in the kernel config, you need to load
kernel.debug (from /sys/compile/MYKERNEL) into gdb, instead of kernel.
