Agenda: Creating debug environment for the vmware image using gdb, kgdb and qemu.

Last few session we have worked on simulating ARM device on Fedora, by compiling all the tools from scratch so that one single script can be used for all Linux platforms.

Now we plan to create a complete debug environment for the target device. Work on gdb is already complete, we need update gdb on vmware image.


Planning for Gnunify:

As you all might know that GNUnify is scheduled on 11th and 12th of feb and we are aiming to spread the word about our community. There are quite a few things that we have to do before we spread the word.

  1. Formulating presentation strategy for GNUnify.
  2. Finalizing the DvD that we are planning to distribute at GNUnify.

Venue : COEP embedded systems lab.

Time : 10.30 am - 12.30 pm

Date : 5 Feb 2011

I guess there should be a folder named tools on the desktop. All the stuff is in that folder.

As pointed out by Chaitannya, there is a 'tools' folder on desktop. In anycase, I'll send you the script we made to do all the installations and compilations.

Actually there is a script qemu-kgdb.sh ... you find everything there.

To try out the image, go to qemu_bin folder and try !army command. You should be able to run everything.
