I think here's a problem. Your cygwin installation doesn't have a
proper linker installed. win32 ld.exe is not up to the job, IIRC.
You need (at least) the gcc and binutils packages.<br>
<br>
When asking for free help, you should copy and paste into these
emails the command that is failing. If you'd really followed the
instructions, we expect they'd have worked. So in the absence of
evidence that you've done it right, we'll have to assume you've made
a typo. We don't want to guess what you've done wrong :-)<br>
