Hi there,
Well I guess you did not get the point here. Let me open it up a bit!!
I do not want to debug it but rather want to see it running, and also want to run some
*tests* on it ( the kernel is what I intend ). Well let me put it another way,
we have done everything with related to porting ( and as you said arch-dependent )
and we want to see that it's running fine and successfully. And earlier I did not go
for an emulator cause there is no emulator for the one we are looking at !!
Test the functionality of everything we have done essentially !!
I hope you got my point.
Thanks
Regards
Khader
