Apollo 68k's running DomainOS in BSD mode are supported as *cross-hosts* in GDB. There is no native Apollo support, and there is never likely to be any. If you're really into it, though, read gdbint.texinfo to see how much work is involved, and talk to me if you are serious about doing it. > When I picked up gdb-4.6 the other day I noticed that configure had an > entry for Apollos. Note that having an entry in 'config.sub' means that some tool anywhere in the GNU tool chain wants to deal with this machine as either a host machine or a target machine. It doesn't mean that any *particular* tool (e.g. GDB) is likely to support that machine. Check the configure.in file for that tool to see if it's mentioned (if it uses Cygnus's configure). If it uses Autoconf, you're on your own -- it might work or it might not, but you can never tell without building the tool and running it awhile. John
