Hi I am creating a large number of executables for i386 based systems (not a standard PC, nor does it run an off-the-shelf operating system), and require the binary executable to contain _all_ information required (and allocated space) within the file. This is not ordinarily a problem, using a linker script and stipulating a 'binary' output from the linker. However, I'd like the BSS section to also be included in the file, as a place holder, such that the file contains all areas of memory required by the executable. All sections (text, data, read-only and bss) are concatenated and not spread through memory. The map file shows all address are correct, but I really do need the bss section within the binary file. How does one do this? Thanks in advance. -- Gary Partis Partis Computing
