GNU toolchain for the 681x

Hello,

I began using the toolchain a couple of months ago and I am struggling with some of the aspects:

1) I am using a linker file and m6811-elf-ld.exe instead of linking by using m6811-elf-gcc.exe. Is it possible to create the same .elf and .dmp files similar to what is created in the hello12gnu.zip example that comes with the toolchain? I tried but was not successful in creating them.

2) I am confused why it is possible to link in two ways: one by using m6811-elf-ld and the other by using m6811-elf-gcc. I have used other compilers such as IAR, Cosmic, and Metrowerks and have always used a linker to link the files.

Thanks in advance for the help.

gcc is smart enough to call ld.
