Question about which tools to use, bugs, the best way to implement a function, etc should go here. Don't forget to see if your question is answered in the wiki first! When in doubt post here.
The fact that you were specifying an .o file (intermediate object) to output, though once again I had not fully processed the thread and so was simply throwing a potential possibility out there. Without seeing the full process you use to compile your kernel in the order you perform it in (all I saw at a glance were a couple of commands scattered through your post) I could not tell for sure. AFAIK that does produce a "working" executable, just with an odd extension, but I was a bit pressed for time and could not think through what all those commands do.

I suggest you read my posts again... (especially the first)
Maybe I should fix the wikipedia page, since it suggests the wrong thing, and lacks some quality. (for one, the dictionary disagrees with WP; it equals a binary to an executable file, which is in some cases a subset of object files as mentioned above, but not the same as wikipedia suggests)
