Hi,

I am using gcc running on Sun Sparc to build embedded ROM code for an
i486-based product.  Since "gas" does not support real-mode (16-bit) code,
is there any gnu tool out there that would support real-mode?  I remember
that Linux OS makes some references to 'as86' and 'ld86' to assemble and link
its boot code.  Can someone tell me how to get as86 and ld86 (including 
manuals)?

Thanks in advance.
