Hi Samuel,
MiniOS on ia64 is currently broken and I would get it compile again.
Beside some other problems I found the app.lds thing.
This doesn't work on ia64 because the special object mini-os_app.o is not
linkable with the other objects.
What is needed is a object got compiled with the ia64 flags and than linked
with app.lds script.
A simple solution could be to add an empty file maybe app_lds.c to the mini-os
main directory. This will be compiled with ia64 flags and than linking it
with app.lds.
The diff for the Makefile would be:
diff -r 5fd51e1e9c79 extras/mini-os/Makefile

I didn't find any solution in changing your linker script app.lds to get the
needed flags into the object mini-os_app.o to get it linked with ia64
objects.
What do you think?
Thanks.
Dietmar.
