: I'm trying to port some piece of C code to linux/unix.
: This code contains statement in assembler.

: 1. How can I compile it under linux with gcc or gas ?

I have no idea.

: 2. Will this be portable ?

Only to other DOS machines.

If you're running X-Windows on an x86, you don't want to use BIOS to
clear the screen; and if it's called BIOS on a Sparc, it is a very
different (though forthright) BIOS.

Although the concept is portable, no implementation is, so you'll have
to do something specific for the system and display. For example, if
you're doing X-Windows, you can clear a window with X calls, or with
curses if it xwsh, or something of that ilk. On a Mac, you set up the
clipping region and fill it. On a glass tty, you can you curses or look
up the terminal clear screen code (or send a few dozen new lines).
