Okay, if I do it that way, is there a how-to somewhere on this, or does kgdb come with something like that or am I on my own here? :-)

Using gdb to debug the kernel is not an easy trick. You will need a kgdb patch for the kernel, and 2 computers. 1 for running the
kernel,
and one for the debuger. These computers should be connected using a serial (RS232) cable.
Please take notice I haven't done this since the 2.0 days, so things might have changed, but I don't expect they changed much.
