Through away your Wiggler and get a BDI2000.  They don't support the MMU,
they are slow and only work under windows.

I'm running with Linux on the EST8260 board and I would like to connect the
Wiggler to the JTAG port of board.

Does anybody have suggestions on how I should configure the gdb to debug a
device driver?

many thanks

Gianfranco

This is not exactly correct.  IIRC  the  BDM4GDB  project  has  added
support to drive the wiggler, too, including MMU support.

But the BDI2000 is clearly the superior tool.

Also, I think it should be said that for $150, the wiggler is a great
bargain and very useful for doing initial bringup.  It's certainly
capable of programming the dram (UTM) and getting initial boot rom
code going, even if you have to use a Windows machine to do it.

True (and I love the bdi2000), but it's 16x the cost, so each tool has
a place...

Aman,

As long as PPCBOOT does note do anything with the DBCR registers,
the answer is yes.

yes and no. I could never get riscwatch software to do symbolic
debugging.

Kenneth,

Try compiling with -dwarf2.  We have no problem with symbolic debug    with
riscwatch here.

You will also need to set you srchpath to inclulde the .o file that contain
the debug info
