linking a program for download to at91sam7x-resident redboot


Hi
I have configured, linked and downloaded redboot into my at91sam7x board. Its a minimum redboot, supporting only ser0 and ser1 for direct download into flash.


Then I wanted to change my little hello-program by linking it in such a way to go above redboot in the flash. Actually I placed it at 0x00120000 - far above redboot - by editing the ecos-provided target.ld-file. The memory-statement in this file now reads like this:

MEMORY
{
    ram : ORIGIN = 0x00200000, LENGTH = 0x20000
    rom : ORIGIN = 0x00120000, LENGTH = 0x80000
}

However, when running the linker, it produces errors and reports vectors etc. to be out of rom range. Correct, but I think I do not need these vectors here. What else do I have to change in the loader file (or elswhere) to get a linked program to be downloadable to/with redboot where it will be launched by a cor. redboot command (or a script later on)? Thanks for help.
Robert
