I have an USB port that has debug capabilities (according to the lspci output) Should I buy the one mentioned in this page http://www.coreboot.org/EHCI_Debug_Port
Yes
or can I use a normal cable to debug?
There is no normal cable to connect two host ports together and doing so would be a bad idea anyway.
Thanks Vikram

Hello! Andrew is right. Don't do that. Track down and buy one of the devices described on that Wiki page. Further along, it happens that the gadget chips were originally used for a cable that enabled "simple file transfer methods" for sending files from one computer to the other, and I asked about them.
Turns out that the cable might have been perfect, except that it also isn't the right one.
Naturally I am also looking for the classic USB gadget cable or in this case card, as described in the 2.4.33.3 USB area.
ok. I am planning to buy one. Please share your thoughs on which one to buy. In the links(in wiki page), it is mentioned that, === from the link (http://www.ajaystech.com/net20dc.htm) System Requirements
Target Computer: Windows Vista and later OS Host Computer: Windows 2000 and later OS === Does this mean anything? or this stuff can also be used for boot time debugging (coreboot) ?
