Hi Jeff, 

I did take a look at the error messages given by ld and seems to me that
either the default linker script is not good or is not found at all. The
_start symbol should be defined in the crt0.o file (which is the start
file typically included when you link with the C library)

If you want more informations about the parameters gcc gives to the other
tools use the -v switch in you gcc command line.

For me it seems to be an installation problem, but I'm far from being an
expert so I can be wrong...

As an alternative you can try to build your own linker script.

Hope this will help a bit.

bye
