Re: Using Intel UDk debugger

[Arka Sharma <arka.sw1988@gmail.com>]

After changing the putty settings I am getting this message  "Send
INIT break packet and try to connect the HOST (Intel(R) UDK Debugger
Tool v1.5)" followed by þ?Yºþ?Yºþ?YºHOST connection is failed! Am I
missing some other settings ?

Regards,
Arka

I manually located the serial port with "devices". In the shell when I load DebugAgentDxe I get the same text as mentioned in Step 8 of section 9.11 in UDK_Debugger_Tool_User_Manual_V1.11.pdf.
