I am running an application on a Embedded board (Linux kernel 2.6.39.2). The application is writen in C and compiled by a toolchain with core-dump flag (-g).

When it crashes (Segmentation Fault) it generates the core-dump file. However the board has no gdb installed.

How can I analyse this core-dump file on my Linux Machine (Kernel 3.2.0-36-generic-pae and GNU gdb (Ubuntu/Linaro 7.4-2012.04-0ubuntu2.1))? There is any option to pass to the gdb on my machine indicating the toolchain compiler and the kernel where the application run?
