Re: Where's zImage

[Heikki Vatiainen <hessu@cs.tut.fi>]

Hi,

Actually the package is called bin86 and it can be found from the devel 
section in both stable and unstable. Here's the description:

Description: Assembler and loader for kernel compilation. 

     This is the as86 and ld86 distribution written by Bruce Evans.
     It's a complete 8086 assembler and loader which can make 32-bit
     code for the 386+ processors (under linux it's used only to
     create the 16-bit bootsector and setup binaries).
