Hmmm. Maybe this mail should have been sent to xen-devel instead, I'm retrying
- sorry for the extra noice :-)


Hello!

I'm using Xen-unstable updated a few days ago, and I'm trying to debug an OS
which I'm porting to Xen. I'm using the gdbserver to debug domU, and while
this works fine I'm wondering if it is possible to have the debugger catch the
domain crashes, i.e., if I crash the domain it would be nice if I could check
the backtrace etc from within GDB.

Is this possible?
