Devlopement Evrioment

Post by cornetto456 »

Hi,
Im new to Osdev.org and the forums.

Now my question is I used some tutorials and write the source code tho test it :).

But now the problem is i can't get it compiled to a .bin with the linker.

it says that it can't find start.o
then i tried diffrent tut's and all of them had error's.

So i figuerd out im doing something wrong with setting my compiler and such.(Im using Windows 7 btw so gcc doesn't work :S)

Im using DJGPP and Cygwin and have just installed them.


Can anybody give me a link of a tutorial or write them self to let it compile ? and link ?


Thanks!

Arno,Cornetto456 :)

I'm sorry, but that has to be the most epic nonsense I've seen in months. Also, all tutorials linked from here are known to have worked for many, many people. And since you have tried several the chance that you accidentally came across something broken is too small.

I'll stop with the observations now, but not being able to get a compiler working is lightyears away from passing the required knowledge rule and post here. Instead, I suggest you visit the C programming message boards, and ask them for help to get you a gcc for windows. Then make some fun stuff with that first before you end up playing out the sorceror's apprentice here and end up hating programming for life.
