Which is your current directory when you enter this comand? Where did you build the ppcboot binary?

Why are you entering this command? If you built thePPCBoot binary  in
this   directory,   it  should  not  be  necessary,  since  GDB  will
automatically use $cdir:$cwd as it's directory search. If  you  built
PPCBoot  in  a  different directory and use this as current directory
the command should not be necessary either for the same reason.

You are not running the program yet. No source file is being executed
yet. You cannot show other information like registers, either:

	(gdb) info registers
	The program has no registers now.
	(gdb) print $pc
	No registers.

Start the program (by attaching to a remote target  and  "continue"),
and everything will be well :-)
