[Gdb] RE: Can I use gdbserver without BDM device to debug ColdFire appl ication

[Chen Qi-A18263]

Hi, all:

        It seems that the m68k cross tools ( both gcc3.3.3 and gcc2.95 ) only 
have m68k-bdm-elf-gdb ( the m68k-elf-gdb is linked to m68k-bdm-elf-gdb )
        Does it means that It only support debugging with BDM device?

Best Regards
