cygwin ( http://cygwin.com ) is a linux shell /emulator that runs under Windows. It uses standard gcc and ld , We thought this would be the easiest way to get our developers going with OpenBIOS as a development simulator... Is anyone out there running OpenBIOS as an application under Windows (XP or 2000)?

We know (I can say at least for Stefan and myself), but gcc+binutils is multi-platform and highly configurable. So the question is, how was yours configured ? You can get a list by typing "ld --help" and look for the magic word "supported" ;) e.g.: " ld: supported targets: elf64-x86-64 elf32-i386 a.out-i386-linux efi-app-ia32 elf64-little elf64-big elf32-little elf32-big srec symbolsrec tekhex binary ihex ld: supported emulations: elf_x86_64 elf_i386 i386linux " check for elf32-i386

Sounds like a plan to me. Do you have any further plans to run it on real hardware as well ? After all, that's what this is all about.

Certainly not me.
HTH,

You might either enable an ELF-Target in your Cygwin gcc/binutils or you can just disable the target builds (CONFIG_IMAGE_*). Then you only end up with the "Unix hosted binary" which should also work fine on Windows/Cygwin. My Windows underwent some user aided self destruction recently, but I'll have a look as soon as I get to this.

I'll try some of your suggestions and see if I can get it going.

Absolutely. Some of my associates (hi Colleen) are going to try to get this running on our AIX server this week.
