with target sim gdb hangs....summary

[paawan oza]

Hi

I have posted several mails regarding arm binaries running under gdb target sim 
command.
here is the brief summary, please give inputs to resolve it if possible.

1) 
gdb compiled with
--host=i686-pc-linux-gnu --target=arm-elf

tool chain used 
arm-none-linux-gnueabi

gdb hangs under target sim.


2) 

gdb compiled with
--host=i686-pc-linux-gnu --target=arm-eabi

tool chain used 
arm-none-linux-gnueabi  

  gdb hangs under target sim.

3) 

gdb compiled with
--host=i686-pc-linux-gnu --target=arm-eabi

tool chain used 
arm-none-gnueabi   (bare metal toolchain for arm)

note: wihtout '-T gneric.ld' option arm-non-gnueabi-gcc throws __start linker 
error.
and with '-T gneric.ld', it compiled fine with some warnings....

but still gdb hangs under target sim.

PS: I am using vmware on windows xp, and running linux (2.6.14).

Regards,
Oza.
