You need to learn about linkers and how they work.  This is a large 
topic - more than can be covered in a single email.  I suggest you find 
a good book on the subject.  eg "Linkers and Loaders" by John Levine.

The best method is to examine the code for a similar port and use it as 
a guideline for creating your own port.  What sort of microcontroller is 
it ?  Is it similar to any other CPUs ?
