Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CCSTUDIO

I followed the instructions in part 3 of this document

http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Linux_Debug_in_CCSv5

and got the same problem as reported here:

http://e2e.ti.com/support/development_tools/code_composer_studio/f/81/t/180094.aspx

Should I try CCSv5.2 beta as suggested?

    Downloaded CCSv5.2 beta and tried again.

    Got the following error

    NLS missing message: MemoryDumper_dialog_invalidHeaderError in: com.ti.ccstudio.debug.ui.CCSDebugUIMessages

    An exception stack trace is not available.

    eclipse.buildId=M20120208-0800
    java.version=1.6.0_13
    java.vendor=Sun Microsystems Inc.
    BootLoader constants: OS=linux, ARCH=x86, WS=gtk, NL=en_GB
    Framework arguments: -product com.ti.ccstudio.branding.product
    Command-line arguments: -os linux -ws gtk -arch x86 -product com.ti.ccstudio.branding.product

    I would have attached my ccxml file but apparently "that file type is not allowed" 

    Any suggestion as to how to debug the Linux kernel on a DM816x?

    I tried CCS5.1 and got the same issue.

    By a bit of experimenting and random chance I discovered that leaving the Project field in the Program tab of the debug configuration clear allows the config to load.

    And halting the processor does display the source.

    Not sure whether it all works yet but it is looking better.
