Thanks for the insight. "b *_start" does indeed place the breakpoint at the correct address. I hadn't realized that it was a preamble issue. Is there a better stab to use to indicate to gdb that the function is one that has no preable? -wolfgang -- Wolfgang Rupprecht <wolfgang@wsrcc.com> http://www.wsrcc.com/wolfgang/ Never trust a program you don't have sources for.
