The pc386 BSP make procedure does some magic transformations on the
ELF file produced by directly linking.  If you want the commands used
when producing the RTEMS samples you will see some steps involving
an objcopy and a bin2boot.  You have to do those steps on your program.

You will have to provide more details to know what you are doing wrong.
But the pc386 BSP does require some extra streps to get from linked
ELF to bootable image.
