The linker script - 2008/04/14 06:25
thanx for ur attention flux.........
actually i hav solved that problem but i think i must share it with u
Earlier the linker script was like this......
OUTPUT_FORMAT("binary")
ENTRY(start)
phys = 0x00100000;
SECTIONS
{
.text phys : AT(phys) {
code = .;
*(.text)
. = ALIGN(4096);
}
.data : AT(phys + (data - code))
{
data = .;
*(.data)
. = ALIGN(4096);
}
.bss : AT(phys + (bss - code))
{
bss = .;
*(.bss) *(COMMON)
. = ALIGN(4096);
}
end = .;
}
The problem was, all string which i declared like puts("this is a string "); this was going on the very first bit of final .bin file which lets the multiboot header to go down and so grub was not able to recognize the .bin file as a kernel file
What i did I added *(.rodata.*) in .data section below *(.data) and the problem was resolved...
i got this idea after looking assembly conversion of my .c files...
