kernel debugger cannot start on win 2000

[Guest wong_powah@yahoo.ca]

In the testing system, i change the boot.ini file to

[boot loader]

timeout=30

default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\WINNT

[operating systems]

multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\WINNT="Microsoft Windows 2000

Professional"

/fastdetect

multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\WINNT="Microsoft Windows 2000

Professional debug" /debug /debugport=com1 /baudrate=115200

 

After that, i restarted my Testing system and choose option "debug".

 

cd C:\"Program Files\Debugging Tools for Windows"

set _nt_debug_port=com1

set _nt_symbol_path=c:\debug\symbols

set _nt_debug_log_file_append=c:\temp\debug.log
