I have a raw binary data file that I also load onto my device that my application expects to find in memory at address 0x80000. I would like to figure out some method, preferably _after_ I've linked my main application, to glue these two pieces together into a single ELF file so that I could download both pieces in one swell foop. I'm reasonably sure I can do this with some subset of the programs in binutils, but I'm not too sure where to start. I vaguely remember looking at how Linux gets gzip'ed for booting (10 or more years ago), so I'll probably start there, but, in the mean time, I thought I would ask for some pointers. Any pointers? --wpd Patrick Doyle DSP Design Engineer (603) 546-2179 This communication is from DTC Communications, Inc. and is intended to be confidential and solely for the use of the persons or entities addressed above.
