Embedded PowerPC programming book or tutorial?
Johannes Eble - 02:19 17-11-05
Hello community,
is there any book or tutorial for embedded PowerPC programming in c? I
have some theoretical knowledge to embedded systems, but I would like
to read something in the style of "An Embedded Systems Primer", but
specific for PowerPC. Is there maybe any sample project? I will

Hi ,
I am getting this error very consistently whenever I try to do system

But when I do 'Attach' and then 'Break',it shows 'pc' at
