What's the current method for debugging kernels?

    genius# gdb -k /usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENIUS/kernel.debug 5d079ab35c111057dbbf8f242940bbad.core

    kernel symbol `dumppcb' not found.
    Attaching to program: /usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENIUS/kernel.debug, process 5

    ptrace: Invalid argument.
    (kgdb) quit

Is this something I'm doing wrong, or it is a bug somewhere?   What's
'dumppcb'?

Joe
