I can remote GDB from the i386 to the PPC but here the entire control is taken by GDB by halting the PPC plane, My question is it possible / feasible to attempt the remote GDB attach only to single micro kernel thread in the PPC plane and not halt it totally? Say the other threads proceed as normal. -- SRK
