I followed this tutorial as well as this one to set up a compiler + debugger for ARM Assembly.
Following the first one, I ran the command qemu-arm -singlestep -g 1234 empty
and started a new shell, where I tried to conncet gdb to qemu by copy&pasting the given instructions :

(gdb) file empty
Reading symbols from empty...done.
(gdb) target remote localhost:1234
Remote debugging using localhost:1234
_start () at empty.s:4
4 mov r0, #1
(gdb)
However whenever I try to connect with target remote localhost:1234
there's a time-out error.
I also followed the instructions in the second tutorial, but ended with the same time-out error. Do I need to pre-configure qemu ?
