Hi
I’m trying to cross-compile on a Linux box using arm-linux-gcc v3.4.5.
This compiler compiles uClinux-2.4 without error but all of the ARM7 Demos fail linking with the output …

Does anyone know what I’m doing wrong?

Which linker script and startup code are you using?  The sections mentioned in this extract are not present in the files included in the FreeRTOS download.

I’ve sorted it out.
The above was from the WizNET_DEMO_GCC_ARM7.

The toolchain was trying to link in /lib/ld-linux.so.2.
I needed to add "-static" to the linker flags in the  Makefile.

Thanks for the response.
