Hi
 I was trying to compile the bootldr 18th March snapshot, and got the
following error. Im not sure what is happening.

arm-linux-ld -v -Ttext=0x0 -Tdata=0x16000 -Bstatic  -o bootldr-elf
boot-sa1100.o mmu-strongarm.o bootldr.o btflash.o heap.o xmodem.o ymodem.o
crc.o bsdsum.o modem.o getcmd.o jffs.o
md5.o -L/skiff/local/lib/gcc-lib/arm-linux/2.95.2 -L. -lgcc -lc -lz
GNU ld version 2.9.5 (with BFD 2.9.5.0.22)
arm-linux-ld: section .rodata [00012708 -> 000160d5] overlaps section .data
[00016000 -> 00017e9b]
make: *** [bootldr] Error 1

Regards
KAR.
