I have a strange problem while using GDB.
Its not just one program causing the trouble, it won't work at all.
First i set a breakpoint in a line. Then i run the program.
When the execution reaches the breakpoint, i get this message:
  exception SIGSEGV, segmentation fault
And then i can't continue (using n or s)

i'm using a 120MHz Pentium with 8Mb ram.
The debugger is running in a Windows 3.11 dos window.
Both compiler and debugger is version 2.? 

I have tried GDB on a UNIX workstation, and that works just fine.
Please help!!!!

Btw. is it somehow possible to start a program by singlestepping (n), 
Without running and then stopping the execution with a breakpoint first.

Thanks. 
Jan Hansen.
