Hi all

We have 2 Linux Machines (redhat 6.1 2.2.12-20) connected back to back =
by a cross cable.
we applied the patch from from kgdb and went step by step as explained.
The "Readme" says that "after applying the patch, when u reboot the
machine and pass "gdb" to the kernel, it should wait for gdb connection =
via
the serial connection from the remote machine"
But for us when we passed the gdb to the linux kernel it doesn't =
wait
and it boots up normally.
In this case what might be the problem.
Is it a Compilation or Lilo problem or the way we pass gdb to the =
kernel. We
don't know where we are erring
=20
Please Help

Regards
Mani
