gdb + nasm debug info not being created

Question

I am trying to debug a small .asm file that I wrote in Ubuntu. I am however running into an issue where my symbol table is not being loaded and was looking for some help.

Answer 1

Assemble your file with the following commands :-

nasm -f elf -F dwarf -g file.asm
ld -m elf_i386 -o file file.o

and then use gdb,
