[U-Boot] Debugging uboot w/ GDB

[Brandon Burnett]

Hey All!

I'm trying to step through code using gdb and uboot. I have an iMX35 board
that I've connected to via JTAG. I load up the uboot code and set a
breakpoint at board_init but it gives me a really strange error. Can anyone
make sense of it?

(gdb) target remote localhost:3333
Remote debugging using localhost:3333
0x00000000 in ?? ()
(gdb) restore /home/brandon/Desktop/u-boot.bin binary 0x87F00000

Thanks in advance!
