The RDI stuff in gdb uses either TCP, serial port,
serial/parallel combination.  I don't believe it's possible to
use just the parallel port, since the RDI stuff in gdb only
uses the parallel port to write stuff to the JTAG box.

That depends on your OS installation.  Under Linux it's
typically /dev/lp0 or /dev/lp1

I don't understant that question.

If you can, try to get it working with just a serial connection
at 9600 baud.  Once you get that working, you can add the
parallel port connection to speed up downloads.
