Yellow Dog Linux

Hi i need an MMU ma of my G4
i've installed the 4.1 right now and i've found on some sites that i need to recompile the kernel with kgdb patches.
Anyone can help me??

Thx!

what exactly do you need? your machine has a memory management unit built in and it should be fully utilized as its a processor bit. As for recompiling your kernel we can give you help there just ask where you get stuck

well. first of all i must recompile the kernel but i receive these undefined references:

what's wrong? seems the debug library the problem?

no one?

however i need to put output to stdout not to the serial

it sounds like you have some of the debugging stuff enabled; if you dont need it disable it (or make sure it all is)

i want the debug enabled. i want compile kgdb indeed

Doh!!! yeah forgive my ignorance just dawned on me that kgdb is the front-end of gdb. well i guess first things first can you get output via cli before trying to make it handle the guil section
