I have an ADS860 board connected to a Win98 machine. It uses the ADI
card and PPC8BUG v1.5 montitor software running on the win98 host. I
can type "gdbserver :debug" to run the gdbserver on the win98 host. I
can also connect to it via tcp/ip using gdb (powerpc-rtems-gdb) on my
linux box using "target remote host:8000". I can load a program to the
ADS target and alter global variables ok. eg. set testvar = 23. I can
set the $PC and see all the registers. Everything appears to work fine
until I try to step through a program with "stepi". It continually
returns with out moving the PC. If I try "step" it just continually
sends the step command and never returns. The only thing I can do is a
control-C and that detaches the target. Is there something I'm doing
wrong or is it possibly a bug somewhere ?
