GCC for embedded systems - help please


Dear GNUs,

 I'm trying to compile some software for an embedded system. The host 
system is a 486, I'm building on a 686. I'm trying to use GCC to compile 
the source, but instead of the standard a.out elf format, all I want is 
binary. I've written my own memoryscript.ld and crt0.s, although I'm now 
having great difficulty getting code to run. I think theres problem with my 
crt0.s

 I've done some web trawling, and keep getting redirect to www.cygnus.com, 
which is now a different site (I think? Havent seen the original). I've 
also mailed the cross gcc mailing list (@cygnus.com) with mails bouncing 
back! Has this site moved?

 Does anyone know where I can find info on GCC for embedded systems, 
especially info on crt0.s for a i486?

 Has anyone done something like this before?

 Had a look around at cross gcc info, but still to no avail.

 Have I missed something? Will GCC do this for me?


 Thankyou for your time.

 Regards Nigel Murphy.
