Debugging help please

[Heiroglyph]

I'm only finding some really old, incomplete info on debugging options.

I tried to enable the logserver boot option by editing the bootinfo.txt BOOT-SCRIPT line:
boot &device;:&partition;,\boot.img ramdebug logserver

then running:
HFSSetMacBoot Boot:bootinfo.txt

but it won't boot with logserver added, it just gives me an icon of a folder with a ? so I have to boot from the CD, remove that boot option, then run HFSSetMacBoot Boot:bootinfo.txt again so that it boots.

I've got a Powermac G5 which has no serial port. Can I use a USB to serial adapter to remote debug?

The apparent lack of GDB or any real debugger combined with no good documentation on what we do have is a horrible sign for new developers.

What little I know so far was gatherd from several places and often just inferred from what I did find.

Any suggestions or links?

Thanks,
John

No real help here, but the morphzone has a docs section. I don't really more after I got chased off the site for being to dumb to use a computer.

I would think that the morph fanboys would have answered in a heartbeat...

It seems like such a nice, complete solution compared to other affordable Amiga-ish alternatives, but I feel like I'm steadily finding all the missing pieces in MorphOS.

If I can't really debug on this G5 system or worse, this OS, I'm going to have to look elsewhere. A working development environment is my #1 priority unfortunately and printf debugging isn't really something I'm willing to put up with.
