You will need to get the sources for insight from
http://sources.redhat.com/insight and build a mips-ecoff version. Unlike
other debuggers based on gdb, Insight is built INTO gdb: they are the same
executable.

When you build and install from these sources, you should have yet another
"mips-ecoff-gdb", which will give you Insight. Using "mips-ecoff-gdb -nw",
you can supress the gui and use the command line.
