hello,

 the problem i have is that after compiling dummy c program:
  
 int main() { }

 and compiling it 'gcc -c dummy_program.c'
 then trying 'ld dummy_program.o -o dummy.bin -Ttext 0x0 -e main --oformat 
binary', i have 1024 byte file, which of right assembler code at the 
beginning but all the other bytes till 1024th are filled with zeros '0'.
 
 whats wrong?

 gcc version 3.1
 ld 2.12.1

 compiling on win9x
