Hai all
I have a COFF program which was compiled in SCO Unix with Motif. I am able to run the program in RH 5.2, but not in higher versions. I tried to convert the file into ELF format using the command objcopy using the -I and -O options. But I am getting the message 'invalid bfd target'. Can any body please help me how to convert the file.
Thanks and regards
Sat

You are probably trying to use a version of objcopy without the
necessary support compiled in.  Configure binutils with
--enable-64-bit-bfd --enable-targets=all
