I keep having the same problems. For me it's actually even worse in that after  
gdb is built when I try to really debug something with it my system crashes  
horribly - not even a panic just a dirty reboot.

My platform is an Olivetti LSX 5020 (i486 EISA system) running UNIX V.4. The  
small (3 lines or so) program to be debugged is compiled with gcc (version  
2.2.2) with -ggdb option. I had no problem running gdb 4.6 on my sun 3/60.

Any suggestions?

	Richard
