Hello All,

I found an article about remote kernel debugging using GDB.  I have a
question about starting starting GDB on the debugging machine.

The article states to start gdb in the directory where I built the kernel
(for the target) and enter the command:

gdb -k kernel

I do this and gdb starts fine, but no symbols are loaded.  I went to the GDB
web site and can't find any explanation for the -k option.  Does anyone know
what the -k means and also if there's anything else I need to supply on the
start line to make sure I get my symbols for the kernel loaded?

Thanks!

Chris
