The purpose of this project to maintain and support kmdb for Polaris. You can get to kmdb through 'boot -k' from the OpenFirmware/OpenBoot console or mdb -k from a command prompt. The 'boot -k' command reboots your computer and runs the debugger in the background (you'll see a notice during boot telling you kernel debugger is present..power manangement disabled).
There is a project website on this (mdb) so Iwon't get intothat here. Mainly, this is the support of the debugging code from the community side and how it relates to Polaris. SunLabs and Sun are the original primary contributors. ~ Ken Mays This message posted from opensolaris.org
