There's no problem for the handbook verbally mentioning the differences between version. Well actually, the information in the handbook works for 2.2, so the flags only have to be mentioned as a 3.0 item. > > strip -x, and boot it using the -d boot option.

Any serial port on > any debugger-host can be used. Sure. That's why a wrote ``assuming the first serial port''. From a kernel hacker, i expect he knows that the second port will be cuaa1 etc. ;-) > > Now, on the target host (that entered DDB right before even starting > ^^^^^^^^^^^ some confusion about `host'. > I used it for the machine running gdb. > > the device probe), type: Target host is the machine running the kernel to test. That's also the machine that now (apparently) requires some flags to sio0 (or whatever has been chosen), so my question: which flags? According to Justin, 0x40. -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
