In particular, I get: :: :: Are you sure you rebuilt and reinstalled a new kernel?? The bug was of :: course in the kernel, not in gdb. :: :: -DG :: I believe I did. After I supped, I stomped the whole 'compile' directory, reran config, and did a make in the compile directory, mv'ed to / I went ahead and supped again this morning, and am rebuilding the whole kernel from scratch again, in case I lost my mind somehow yesterday. In the meantime, is there anything I can look for to make sure I actually got the change you meant to make through sup? I should also say the executable I'm aiming it at is pretty fat. I've got 16MB of ram, but loading this monster in GDB pages the bejeezus out of my box. I'll also try it with something smaller, & let you know my findings.
