First, you need to have a gdb binary that was built for arm
targets.  Then you connect using a command like:

gdb> target rdi /dev/ttyS0 19200
   or
gdb> target rdi s=/dev/ttyS0,p=/dev/par0 19200

Once connected, most of the gdb commands work as usual, except
you use the "continue" command to start execution after you
load a file:

gdb> symbol-file myprog.elf
gdb> load myprog.elf
gdb> cont

I don't have any experience with MultiICE, but I don't believe
it's compatible with EmbeddedICE.  At one point there was a a
library that could be used to get gdb to work with MultiICE,
but there were licensing problems.

See:

According to the posting below, multiICE support for gdb hasn't ever been
released:
