ld: warning: option -m is obsolete and being ignored on macOS

[theRookieCoder]

For ex1.asm, the instructions don't work with newer versions of ld as -m is obsolete.

I also have the same error, did you find a solution?

[Darkcast]

its a pain to try to do these in mac, try using a linux vm and they should work

[chamroeun-chh]

make sure the code is correct and running the command below:

1. nasm -f elf32 .\instruction.asm -o .\instruction.o
2. ld -m elf_i386 ex1.o -o ex1
3. ./ex1
4. echo $?

It's been years haha, but yeah I lost interest in assembly pretty quickly. I actually made a python script to compile assembly files using nasm and run it, but that has been deleted so I'm not sure what I did to make it work on macOS. I'll leave this open since this hasn't really been 'fixed' yet.
