remgdb: debugging user-level MINIX processes with gdb Robert Zulawnik, January 2002 This package contains a conversion utility for translating MINIX ACK and a.out files into UNIX a.out format, so that they can be used as a source of debug information for gdb. It also contains gdbserver adapted for MINIX - it is a piece of code that allows for remote hookup of gdb. The debug session requires 2 systems with serial ports connected via a null modem cable. One of them hosts gdb itself (i.e. runs an OS capable of hosting gdb), while the other one is a MINIX box running processes that can be debugged at source level. Detailed descriptions are provided in the README file. Note added by asw 10 Feb 2002: the tar file has been repackaged. Place the tar file in /usr/local/src and execute the command: compress -d < remgdb.tar.Z | tar xvfp - This will create /usr/local/src/remgdb and unpack the archive into the new directory. Consult the README file for instructions. Robert Zulawnik
