help regarding ld

[Ramana Radhakrishnan]

Hi,

This is a binutils question and not a gcc question , so 
replying only on the binutils list.  Use the -entry command 
line option for arm-elf-ld to specify the entry point for 
your code. (The default entry point _start is specified from 
the default linker script which is assumed to be defined in 
one of the files being linked finally to produce the 
executable.) .

cheers
Ramana
