GDB compilation and running

Hello,

I need to debug the application running on mini2440 board and compiled GDB
debugger. During compilation I got some linking errors that I fixed by
editing the Makefile, but finally I got everything built.

However, after putting everything to the board neither 'gdb' nor
'gdbserver' refused to run. After typing 'gdb' or './gdb' from its
directory I got error, - '-sh: gdb: not found'. The same thing with
gdbserver.... I used 'arm-linux' tools to build the sources.

I also tried to build gdbserver separately with 'arm-none-linux-gnueabi'.
After building and running it on the target board, I got error, - 'Illegal
instruction'.

During configuration nothing special was used, only --host=<target>

Could please someone help me to resolve this problem.

Hey,
you should add cflags while configuring CFLAGS='-msoft-float -march=armv4t
-mtune=arm920 -O0' and meybe the same CXXFLAGS I did it, and it works for
me.

Many thanks ~~~

using these flags the compilation was done without any errors

After deploying everything worked fine for me~~

Hi Artem Park, can you just make a tutorial how to install gdb on mini2440
board? I'm stuck with this for a long time. Thanks.
