A question...

Hello Netland, I am trying to make Nethack 2.3 on an Altos 2086 running Altos 
Xeninx 3.4f and I'm having problems with the loader.  I hope somebody out 
there can help.

I have a makefile with the following:

$(GAME):    $(SPECIFICS) $(HOBJ) Makefile
    cc $(LFLAGS) -m hack.map -o $(GAME) $(CRT0) $(HOBJ) $(LIBS) -SEG#256

and the result of this is as follows:

    cc -Ml -m hack.map -o nethack apply.o bones.o decl.o cmd.o do.o dothrow.o 
    do_name.o do_wear.o dog.o dogmove.o eat.o end.o engrave.o fight.o fountain.o
    hack.o invent.o ioctl.o lev.o main.o makemon.o mhitu.o mklev.o mkmaze.o 
    mkobj.o mkshop.o mon.o monmove.o monst.o o_init.o objnam.o options.o 
    pager.o polyself.o potion.o pray.o pri.o prisym.o read.o rip.o rumors.o 
    save.o search.o shk.o shknam.o sit.o spell.o steal.o termcap.o timeout.o 
    topl.o topten.o track.o trap.o tty.o unix.o u_init.o vault.o wield.o 
    wizard.o worm.o worn.o write.o zap.o version.o rnd.o alloc.o -ltermcap 
    -SEG#256 

    Command line warning 10: ignoring unknown flag `SEG#256'

    /bin/ld: Too many segments
    Input File: wield.o(wield.c) pos: b9 Record type: 98
    *** Error code -109

    Stop.

I think the problem is that the segment size needs to be increased but
my loader isn't recognizing the SEG#256 flag.  I've gone through my 
manuals but I cannot find an flag for the segment size in either the ld
or the cc section!

I'd like to call Altos but they're impossible to talk to without
a workorder number and I don't have that.  Can somebody e-mail me 
the right flags for this?

Thanks in advance.
