If I have to start compiling the firmware locally what is the recommended best way to do it. I have looked at Local development and gdb debugging with NetBeans, a step by step guide and have not been able to determine how useful that is.
There must be a preferred or recommended approach to debugging the firmware preferably with the JTAG interface to look at code as it executes. I would appreciate any suggestions and reasons why. It looks to me as though I will have to start working at that level to finish this project I have been working on now.
