SATA disk is Not Detecting While Linux bootup

By
Did you experience below kind of error anytime with SATA disk,

PCI: enabling device 0000:00:01.0 (0140 -> 0143)
ata1: SATA max UDMA/100 cmd 0xC2852080 ctl 0xC285208A bmdma 0xC2852000 irq 22
ata2: SATA max UDMA/100 cmd 0xC28520C0 ctl 0xC28520CA bmdma 0xC2852008 irq 22
ata1 is slow to respond, please be patient

after waiting you get
ata1: no device found (phy stat 00000000)
scsi0 : sata_sil

and at last
ata2 failed to respond (30 secs)

And you know how simple answer is for this.
Yes only thing is knowing is the key.

The answer lies in power source connector; SATA disks are very sensitive to power source, so if you see such errors coming while bootup and your SATA disk is not getting detected then press the power connector, And your are saved. This is my experience after struggling for an hour with changing SATA disk and changing SMPS, changing target board, but nothing worked; finally press hold on power connector to SATA disk and done. bbuuuurrr..

Remote debugging for ARM target board

By
Remote debugging for ARM target board With GDB one can both trace and modify code and data flow, and otherwise analyze the behavior of code, without explicitly changing any of it. Rather than run a full-blown instance of GDB on the target platform, you can use GDBserver , a program that lets you run GDB on a different machine than the one on which your program is running. The advantage of using GDBserver is that it needs just a fraction of the target resources that GDB consumes, because it implements only the low-level functionality of the debugger -- namely setting breakpoints and accessing the target processor registers and read/write application memory. GDBserver takes control of the application being debugged, and then waits for instructions from a remote instance of GDB running on a development workstation. Remote target needs to have debugging stub (gdbserver), The gdbserver is also referred to as the 'stub' and must be cross-compiled for that targ...
