[ECOS] connecting with gdb and redboot

[Rajeev murthy]

hi ,
   i have ported redboot onto my proprietory board and trying to invoke arm-elf-gdb. i'm trying to check whether gdb sends a "$" by connecting the system to another system thru a serial port but nothing seems to come. the serial port and the minicoms are working fine on their own. i'm a bit confused as to what does the gdb do when i say
gdb) target remote /dev/ttyS0 OR
  clicking Connect to target in the GUI
  can anybody help me out
thanks
rajeev
