GDB Arcane Question
 
Would it be possible to examine the contents of a boot sector of a CD, let's say Ubuntu CD Alternate Install x64 with gdb? I searched the man page but could not find anything related to this ...

GDB is a debugger--it's not a tool for examining disk space.

You can use a binary viewer like xxd to view disk space. E.g.

Code:
$ xxd /dev/cdrom | less
