I applied kgdb patch for 2.6.13 to kernel 2.6.14 (since there is no
patch for 2.6.14), but gdb client cannot connec to it. I turn on all
necessary kernel hacking options. Our board is customized with
MPC834x, can someoen who used kgdb to debug kernel on MPC834x help me
out? Following are the message from linux boot and gdb client.
