| |
Hi,
I have a linker script which amongst other things contains:
MEMORY { sdram_linux : ORIGIN = 0x00500000, LENGTH = 4M }
SECTIONS {
.linux : { linux_kernel } > sdram_linux
}
What I have is a stripped kernel image which I want to shove in to a section in the output elf file though the Linker complains it does not recognise the file format (as it perhaps should). I realise that the above is not the correct way to do this - suggestions are very welcome.
I have seen other nasty ways to do this involving converting the image to byte values in very large arrays or inserting literal byte values in to the output file but there just has to be a generic method for inserting an image in to the middle of an output file.
Cheers,
Jon.
