Is it possible to do remote debugging of the FreeBSD kernel over a serial connection using Linux? FreeBSD has a special "-k" switch that Linux does not for GDB; so, I'm not even sure it's possible without a lot of work. Thanks in advance for your replies. -- William Michael Grim Student, Southern Illinois University at Edwardsville Unix Network Administrator, SIUE, Computer Science dept.
