Folks, with GNU linker (ld) I can tell that my 'text' segment to be at the 1mb
memory mark by this instruction:


 ld main.obj -o main.bin --oformat binary -Ttext 0x100000



How can I do the same with Digital Mars linker.

Thanks in advance!

Seems it doesn't help. The map file still the same. /BASE sets the base of
executable image but I need to produce binary.

For OS kernel. :) Actually it is possible to create ussual PE file because of
GRUB can boot any MultiBoot compatipable binaries.

What you can do is write a simple program to just strip the binary data out
of the PE file.
