: Hi,

: I am making an embedded router , i have already made a protected mode program in assembly language program which receives and sends data packets in protected mode , but as routing logic is hard to implement in assembly lang. i will need to code it in c lang. , so i will need a 32 bit instructions exe generated from c , but it shouldn't use dpmi,or dos interrupts as my router will operate independent of os .

: So can anyone guide me how can i do such thing with djgpp to say it not to use dpmi and generate pure bios functions using exe ?

I'm not an expert but I think you _can't_ call the BIOS from protected
mode as it requires real mode.


Right,
