Dave you're right. I forgot to add -r.
Thanks a lot. Your solution work fine.

The problem now is that I should change the Makefile in order to have two different behaviour in CYGWIN and linux.

The solutions are:

1. use if statements in order to execute different statements on linux and cygwin. The question now is how I can do that. I mean what is the variable I have to check with ifdef? 2. Install binutils cross and set target i686-pc-linux. In this way I have to change only the name of tools used to compile and link. But I do not know how to do that. Could someone suggest me a link?

In the Dave solution I noticed the size of final image is 528 instead of
512 (the size of the bootsector) as in Linux. Why?

 Seems like your bootsect.out ended up containing __CTOR_LIST__ and
__DTOR_LIST__.  Are you /absolutely/ sure you remembered to give the '-r'
option to ld?
