Hi,
I am looking for a hardware debugger to help me in broad bringup and kernel
debugging . Searching through google , i could find BDI2000 . It claims to
support firmware debugging as well as linux kernel with MMU enabled ........
Has anyone on the list tried out the BDI2000.........
Will it be useful enough ??Is there something better ??

regards
rm

Will it be useful enough ??Is there something better ??

It was useful enought for me, I used it to debug my bootloader for the Accelent IDP (which is based on armboot, an ancient release of u-boot).

I did not use the thingy to debug Linux itself. There was no need, althought the device would be useful.

However, I use it all the time to flash my eeproms.

And I wrote gdb scripts which test various hardware devices, without any bootloader or linux running on the target. That's quite nice.

I don't know if there is something better.
