Using PPCBug
PPCBug is command-driven; it performs its various operations in response
to commands that you enter at the keyboard. When the PPC4-Bug prompt
appears on the screen, the debugger is ready to accept debugger
commands. When the PPC4-Diag prompt appears on the screen, the
debugger is ready to accept diagnostics commands. To switch from one
mode to the other, enter SD.
What you key in is stored in an internal buffer. Execution begins only after
you press the Return or Enter key. This allows you to correct entry errors,
if necessary, with the control characters described in the PPCBug
Firmware Package User’s Manual.
