I'm no assembly wizard, but I'm writing a bootloader and I get a few compile/assembler errors I haven't been able to find a solution to:
Heres the error messages and the code that it applies to:
os_size:
.word 0
.word 0
lea %ax,os_size # Error: suffix or operands invalid for `lea'
idivw %bx,$512 # Error: suffix or operands invalid for `idiv'
movw $2,%ah # Error: `%ah' not allowed with `movw'
movw %ax,%al # Error: suffix or operands invalid for `mov'
ljmp %bx:%ds # Error: junk `:%ds' after register
Compiling with:
gcc -Wall -g -m32 -c -fomit-frame-pointer -O2 -fno-builtin bootblock.s
Tried on RedHat 64-bit and Ubuntu 32-bit. Get same errors on both.
