If you really want to patch PureDebug this DOC maybe helps: 
http://nic-nac-project.org/~monokrom/monochrom.net/atari/docs/pd_patch.txt

that's a document about patching PD to work with STING. 

But mainly I'm posting because of the topic.
 "No keyboard with GEM=ROM"

The WIKI user-manual ( http://wiki.sparemint.org/index.php/Mint.cnf )
says: 

"If the MiNT is supposed to execute GEM, you should specify the full
path and filename. You can also request MiNT to execute the TOS AES
residing in ROM. WARNING: this is not recommended, you should use a GEM
version instead, that is multitasking friendly. If your init program is
not GEM, you should use INIT "

Does this warning also apply to Systems where MultiTOS is loaded - or
maybe machines where MultiTOS is burned into ROM?  In the end I'm
curious if FreeMint could be part of the ROM...
