Hello Peter,

I tried to compile your test version under Slackware 9.1 and got the 
following errors:

--snip--

gcc -m32    -c -o crt0.o crt0.S
crt0.S: Assembler messages:
crt0.S:65: Error: `4(%esp)' is not a valid 16 bit base/index expression
make[1]: *** [crt0.o] Error 1

--snip
when building under the syslinux-2.20-pre1/dos directory.

Version info:

Kernel: 2.4.27
gcc version: 3.2.3
ld version: 2.14.90.0.6 20030820
nasm version: 0.98.38 compiled on Nov 25 2003

I hope this information helps you.

Quinn
