For binutils help, see http://sourceware.org/binutils/ In a linker script, using data.o within a SECTIONS command tells the linker what to do with data.o, but it doesn't tell the linker to actually use data.o. Putting INPUT(data.o) in your linker script will probably do what you want. See the linker manual for more information. Ian
