VFS - Attaching a debugger

Hey fellow DF users.
I finally got my system converted over to DF after an issue with
ip_input.c being out of sync after a cvsup (causing natd to fatally trap).
However, I was wondering I could connect GDB to the VFS subsystem? I'd
like to step through some code to sort of see how the code works and get
a sense for the flow of events.
Do you guys have tips on how I could do this? Do I just run gdb against
/kernel and set a breakpoint at something like "ip_input" (I know that's
different than the VFS)?
Any tips would be appreciated.
-Mike
