Amarendra,
This is the mailing list for running X11 via cygwin, so I don't think it
would be the best place for binutils questions. You should probably send
your query to [EMAIL PROTECTED], which is the list perused by
may people knowledgable in that area. The list archives can be found at
http://sources.redhat.com/binutils/. I hope that helps :).
Cheers,
Nicholas
P.S. - I can't believe Microsoft actually allows you to run RedHat on one
of their machines... =)
