It's not so simple as you say: I have now found out where the
mach_port_deallocate_debug variable is in gnumach-1.3.99-486-dbg (copied
from boot and uncompressed). I have two alternatives:
1) Write a one into that address without using the kernel debugger, how?
Then I could compress it again, and put it back in /boot!
2) Uncompress it at /boot
Start the debugger with C-A-d. Does this work on an uncompressed image?
w 002c10c0 1
cont
and then, how to exit the debugger?
Then compress the image again, and restarting the debugger??
When should I start the kernel debuggger, before or after triggering:
5040ee18 deallocating an invalid port 340, most probably a bug.
Is there any help available for the kernel debugger?
