MIPS Firmware Reverse Engineering - anyone having any success using Ghidra for this?
Your best bet here is to get the base address nailed down (assuming it’s a flat/monolithic image). There are a handful of utilities floating around (binbloom, basefind2) that use various pointer heuristics to try to guess the base address. There’s also a nice trick detailed in PoC||GTFO that you can use pretty reliably.

Hacked GDB Dashboard Puts It All on Display
There are a lot of these types of tools already in the reverse engineering community (in order of lowest chance of breaking when you throw really weird stuff at it):
GEF: https://gef.readthedocs.io/en/master/
PWNDBG: https://github.com/pwndbg/pwndbg
PEDA: https://github.com/longld/peda
They also come with a slew of different features to aid in RE/exploit dev, but many of them are also useful for debugging really weird issues.

Debugging with GDB
GDB is great. I definitely recommend checking out watchpoints as well, a very useful tool for monitoring how a variable changes over time.
GDB also has many good plugins - pwndbg has tons of features and UI improvements over stock GDB.
