Is there anything special I need to do for assembly on amd64? I am having trouble with the following code:
.data msg: .ascii "Hello\n" len = . - msg .text .global _start _syscall: int $0x80 ret _start: xor %rax, %rax cdq push $len push $msg push $1 movb $4,%al call _syscall push $0 movb $1,%al call _syscall Here is how I am attempting to assemble the above: as -o test1.o test1.s ld -e _start -o test1 test1.o I tried elf2olf -o openbsd test1, but I receive this error: elf2olf: test1: Exec format error. Is there something that I am missing that I need to do on amd64? Thanks, Brian Note: NASM is not an option since it's not available on amd64; there isn't a port of YASM available yet. And I ran into problems trying to compile the YASM's source. ____________________________________________________ Start your day with Yahoo! - make it your home page http://www.yahoo.com/r/hs
