some newbie questions

[Thomas Doerfler]

Sebastian,

I somewhere lost your "newbie" mail thread, but today I read, 
that you are trying to get BDM up and running. In general this 
is a good idea, but I have in mind that you are working with a 
68040/68360 combination, where the CPU32+ core in the 68360 is 
disabled. Since BDM is an interface into exactly this core, it 
will not work (since the actual core executing is the 68040).

Maybe I missed something, then my statement would be obsolete, 
but if you really have the 68040 executing the code you simply 
can spare the time for your BDM efforts.

wkr,
	Thomas.
