I'm looking for a reference guide on line which would 
have the proper syntax for allocating code in a C or 
ASM source file to a specific section which can be later 
referenced by the linker.

Thanks!

In assembly, use the .section directive:

	  .section foobar
        
          <your stuff here>

In gcc, use the __attribute__(()) mechanism:

    char myBuffer[512] __attribute__((section("foobar")));

Both of these are explained in the "info" files:

$ info gcc
$ info gas
