Subject: chdir command
Date: Fri, 03 May 2002 15:54:31 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <3CD2EAF6.5A27E998@exeter.edu> (raw)

I can not get system call #12 to work as advertised.  In Read Hat Linux
7.2 under bash using nasm with elf I write:

section .text
    global _start

path    db '/root',0

_start:

    mov ebx, path
    mov eax,12
    int 80h

    mov eax, 1
    int 80h        ;; int 0x80

Although I have gotten system calls 1, 3-6 & 11 to work fine in assembly
programs, I can not get the change-working-directory call to work.
