This assembler was configured for a target of `x86_64-linux-gnu'. <snip> Thanks to both of you for your replies. You've helped me identify the problem. I'm trying to assemble the code on an x86_64 system. I tried the code using two identical versions of as, except one was 64 bit and the other 32. The assembly code assembled fine on the 32 bit. So I don't know if the code simply doesn't work with the 64 bit CPU or the language of the program doesn't work with the 64 bit assembler. At any rate I tried: $ as --32 power.s -o power.o $ ld power.o -o power and got ld: warning: i386 architecture of input file `power.o' is incompatible with i386:x86-64 output I then found if I put ".code32" at the top of the code it compiled but seg faulted. I'll use the 32 bit machine from now on.
