legOS built on NT - what now

Hi All,

I've just built and successfully compiled legOS on NT 4.0, it is
thanks Luis Villa and his online instructions, that this was
possible - much appreciated Luis.

Hence, when I type" make --unix", the compilation process
completes with a few warnings but no errors. I'm anxious now
to get started, I have also downloaded the "legos.srec" file using
a recompiled firmdl.c, with the OS defined as described in the
docs.

My confusion lies in the different fle formats, .lx and .srec and
to which of these my source code should eventaully compile.
I know the srec file is an ascii encoded standard file/protocol
for encoding and downloading the firmware.

I guess my original impresison from docs and discussions on
legOS was that I would be statically linking all my code into
one executable, an srec file or otherwise, and downloading
this as the replacement firmware and code, in one.

Now I see the "dll" utility which allows me to download,
potentially serveral, ".lx" files along with legOS.srec and
select any one to run. My confusion comes from  references
to .srec files other then the a forementioned legos one, in the
certain docs.

Can someone please help clarify this for me. What are my
options, and possibilities.

Thank-You,

Colin Ryan.

(...) In Unix-ish systems, that style of error message means that it is being generated by the program yada/yada/ld. So, what is happening is that ld.exe is unable to find crt0.o, whatever that is.
