kdb queries !!

[mohanlal jangir]

I have been working with gdb and kgdb for a long time but have absolutely no
idea about kdb. I have some questions regarding kdb.

1. I read somewhere that kdb can allow single stepping for kernel source on
same machine. How does kdb do this? If kernel is stopped then who will take
care of kdb?

2. How to install kdb on my Linux i386 system and how to use it? Is there
any HOWTOs for kdb.
