Hello all,
I am currently enrolled in college course that requires us to use the
Netwide Assembler (NASM). This creates a small problem for me, because I
do not have a DOS box in my room, and do not know how to get NASM to work
the way I expect it to under FreeBSD.
I noticed that NASM is located in the ports collection so I compiled it
and have used it to assemble the .asm assembly code I used for DOS in
class. The assembler does not give me any errors, but I cannot seem to get
the programs to execute. In my most recent attempt I compiled the .asm
into aoutb format and tried to link it into a .c program which calls it.
The gcc c compiler gave me errors at this point, and I am now at a
compleat loss. I have looked around FreeBSD-questions, and hackers
archives for several hours but cannot seem to find anything that helps me.
Is there any one out there that knows how to get NASM to make a file I can
execute, or link into a c program!? Even a simple "hello world" example
may help.
Thanks a bunch in advance
Isaac D. Flemming
