>Description:
I am trying use GDB for remote debugging. GDB gets the hardcoded breakpoint
signal and stops. However I am unable to read or write any memory value because
GDB always sends only the last two hexa decimals of the address whenever a
print or set command is issued. Below I have attached a example.
I am using the sample i386-stub.c in the grub source.
The latest version of GDB in cygwin and mingw are crashing when I open a remote
debugging session.
The serial connection is ok. I tested with HyperTerminal.
Please let me know if I have to add more details.
