Re: Problem with GDB5.1.1 on Readhat Linux for DINK32

Thank You Jan,

powerpc-elf-gdb was created in /usr/loca/bin,
but the gdb couldn't communicate with DINK.

If anyone show me the log that gdb communicates
with dink, would you show me?
If you can load file into target board, and you can
save the log, would you show me please?

Thanks and Regards,
Yoichi
