    Cross Compiler/Assembler

    Hi,

    Is it possible to use GCC as a cross compiler for the following specification;

    Host computer: AMD Athlon (Dual core 64-bit)
    Target machine: 8086/8088

    If possible, could you provide the command line with apt switches.

    Thank you.

    You should be able to write it in assembler, since both Intel and AMD are backwards compatible(at least to some point) . The problem I see is configuring the linker script to produce the desirable executable...Hope this helps Gerard4143

    Hi,

    We have to code in C alone using inline assembly.

    Any suggestions?

    Thank you.
