Not able to start kdb


Hi,
I downloaded linux-2.6.27.58 and patched kdb-v4.4-2.6.27-rc2-common-1,kdb-v4.4-2.6.27-rc2-x86-1. And also enable kdb options in make menuconfig. And I compiled the kernel but,I am not able to start kdb.Is there any thing other than this I have to be aware off.
Thanks and regards.

What errors do you get after starting Kdb? List them out, they might help someone to help you out.

Read about Activating KDB here: http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/li...brary/l-kdbug/
See if that helps.
