| If you say Y here, it will be possible to remotely debug the |
| kernel using gdb. It is recommended but not required, that |
| you also turn on the kernel config option |
| CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER to aid in producing more reliable stack |
| backtraces in the external debugger. Documentation of |
| kernel debugger is available at http://kgdb.sourceforge.net |
