Questions on RTEMS GDB stub over a serial line

Hi rtems-usersall!
I am establishing a remote debug enviroment of RTEMS in a VMware workstation. I am using Till Straumann's GDB Agent for RTEMS. I referred http://www.slac.stanford.edu/~strauman/rtems/gdb/ but I am not clear enough about how to setup a session between the host and the target using a serial port.
Questions
=========
1) Where is the serial device?
Some codes were added to list all file under /dev/ but only /dev/console was found.
2) Is my test program correct?
The source codes are attached at last.
3) Why no debugging symbols found in the hello.exe although flag -g was used?

Reading symbols from /home/ian/src/examples-4.7.1/hello4gdb/o-optimize/hello.exe...(no debugging symbols found)...done.

RTEMS Configuration
-------------------
My host is Suse-10.1 with RTEMS-4.7.1 that configured as
ian at IanVM-1:~/rtems/b-rtems_debug> ../../src/rtems-4.7.1/configure --target=i386-rtems4.7 --quiet --enable-posix --enable-networking --enable-cxx --enable-rtemsbsp=pc386 --enable-rdbg --prefix=/home/ian/rtems/rtems_debug-4.7.1 CFLAGS=-fno-strict-aliasing
----------------
GDB and the Stub
----------------
I installed GDB 6.5 with patches of GDB stub for RTEMS 1.4(http://www.slac.stanford.edu/~strauman/rtems/gdb/RTEMS_gdb_stub_1_4.tgz) and the GDB stub for RTEMS without using Cexp or libbspext.
I also installed libbspExt-1.3beta and "bsd_eth_drivers" from Till , because they were required while building my simple hello-world test.
-----------------------------
About the two Vitual Machines
-----------------------------
One is the host that has RTEMS developing tools, the other is the target where RTEMS hello-world runs. They are connected with a serial line (a virtual line provided by the VMware workstation).
-------------------
Output of hello.exe
-------------------
