[Bizhong Hu]

greeting:

I try to write a boot loader in cygwin. this code
worked in linux. but I try to assembled and linked
it in cygwin, it assembled ok. first question is
what kind of file format that as generated??
then, I tried link it into plain binary format, I
got following error: ld: PE operations on non PE file.

as -o boot.o boot.S
ld -Ttext 0x0 -s --oformat binary -e _start -o
boot.bin boot.o
ld: PE operations on non PE file.
make: *** [boot.bin] Error 1

Is it posibble that I can get work around this
problem?

thanks
