I have a .asm-file and a .c-file...
I assemble the .asm-file like this:
nasm -f elf boot.asm

Ok, I also have a linker file (link.ld).
First line is:
OUPUT_FORMAT("elf32-i386")

Ok, when I want to link it, ld sais:
"ld: gipp: Not enough room for program headers, try linking with -N
ld: final link failed: Bad value"

When I change the nasm command line to:
nasm -f aout ....
and change the linker file to
OUTPUT_FORMAT("binary")
everything works fine. But GRUB cannot load this...
So whats wrong with elf?

Post your link.ld file. We can't tell you why ld doesn't like it, if we can't see it.

Ok, here it is:

OUTPUT_FORMAT("elf32-i386")
ENTRY(start)
SECTIONS
{
.text 0x1000000 : {
*(.text)
}
.data : {
*(.data)
}
.bss :
{                
*(.bss)
}
}

I don't see anything obviously wrong with the link file. What command-line are you using for compiling the .c file and for the link step?

just a question, are you using DjGPP (dos) or Linux gcc ?

I am using gcc and ld, both linux
