RE: Debugging PowerPC 860 embedded target with Abatron BDI 2000: Remo te packet too long errors.


Thanks a lot Elena. 
It worked great with the command 'set architecture powerpc:MPC8xx' 
I have to confess I had no idea about this 'set achitecture' command... :(

My default architecture was rs6000:6000 which obviously was wrong. I took a
look at rs6000-tdep.c and bfd/cpu-powerpc.c and they look ok to me.

Thanks again for your quick response,

Hi, have you tried changing the default architecture that gdb thinks
it is dealing with?

If your current architecture (use 'show architecture') is powerpc:common,
the
register set is smaller. Try 'set architecture powerpc:860'

Look in rs6000-tdep.c at the 'variants' array.

Hope this helps a bit
Elena
