Hi Andy,
    Not sure.   Cheep answer :)
 The SiByte has a DUART.  Not sure what the CFE is using.. That maybe=20
for a target board??

Maybe I don't understand what CFE is doing.
( we use some CFE "based" code but it seems to be modified for our use)

This brings up another Question.
Debugging Linux kernel.
 Typically in the past the BSD kernel was debugged using 2 serial ports.
(Larry might know more on this, worked with Dan)
I believe that in the FC console one needed to type in "debug", then
a "gdb" session would be connected to the SSC console.

So If you are doing this on a bobcat SiByte then you will need 2
consoles.
ie FP0 and FP1 consoles.

Don't know if any of this helped.

Thanks,
Warren

Hi Warren,

Cheap question: which console option should I go for on the Bobcat
sibyte?  The CFE console, or the duart (dual uart) console?  It looks
like the two can't co-exist configuration-wise in the linux kernel, I
have to pick one or the other.  I figured you would be the best person
to ask.

Cheers,

a
