[oe] Debugging u-boot

[Bernard Mentink]

Hi Charles,

Didn't know you were lurking on this list ... ;-) 

I have built for the angstom distro (arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi-*), but the tools got put in my project path I described in my earlier email, but
There was no GDB included for some reason ..

How do you build the meta-toolchain, and how will that help.

Cheers,
Bernie

What toolchain are you building?

If you build meta-toolchain that should build all the stuff you can put into /usr/local/angstrom/arm/... which includes gdb.

That should then work with a JTAG debugger etc.
