ELKS is the Embedded Linux Kernel Subset, it works on 16-bit systems, right? That is correct.
Interestingly, upon this revisit, I’ve found word of a new project,
gcc-ia16
. This is the successor of bcc
, a version of GCC that
allows you to target 16-bit Intel x86 processors. Interestingly,
FreeDOS is also using it.
