Re: debug an ARM via parallel port (Linux)

[Torsten Mohr <tmohr at s dot netic dot de>]

Hi,

i heard that the Raven only works with Windows, so i assume
you're using windows, right?
My code only works in Linux, i don't have any experience in
ARM on Windows and about axf-files, sorry.  Also, thumb is
not supported at the moment.


Best regards,
Torsten.
