Ensure you are using the latest 2_4_devel kernel and Abatron firmware.
We have been developing something that will work better for Linux,
with less overhead and more flexibility on both sides. It was required
due to 2.4.x page table changes, and I finally got the Linux part of
it checked in.

That's because _start isn't a virtual address as indicated in the
vmlinux
symbol table. Set a hard breakpoint at zero if you must stop there.
