Just to answer my own question ... I think I discovered part of my
problem.  I'm using u-boot 2014.07 and I learned that turned on the
watchdog by default.

In uboot I tried:

U-Boot# mw.l 44e35048 0000aaaa
U-Boot# mw.l 44e35048 00005555

... to disable the watchdog and then I didn't get a reset when I ran my
debug configuration and connected to the target.

But now I can't get hardware brakepoints to work :(

Regards,

Brian
