Thanks for the reply, Im using ARM ADS 1.2 to compile the code! Does anybody know how or if I have to turn on interworking for ADS?
 
Also, I have a routine which has to be executed out of RAM instead of Flash to operate properly. When I change the scatterloading file so that aes.o is loaded in RAM the program never branches to it...its like its not there!!
When I check the map file generated by ADS it says the code is located in RAM.
 
Is there a way to set up the scatterloading file so that the routine is copied from Flash to RAM and executed from RAM?
 
Sorry for all the questions!
Thanks,
David

I guess you are using the GCC compiler and the ARM instruction set? 
Because I'm using that (along with AsIDE) and had exactly the same 
problem.

After some reading, and googling and some more reading and some 
assembly debugging we found some clues that lead to the solution. 

In short: turn on the compiler option '-mthumb-interwork'. This is 
nessecary since the bootloader function you are accessing is written 
in Thumb code, see page 193 of the user manual of 2003 okt 02. 

You should jump from ARM to Thumb using the BX instruction from the 
ARM instruction set. This is automatically done by your compiler but 
GCC has this function (thumb-interwork) disabled by default since it 
generates slightly bigger code. When you switch it on you shuld be 
fine...

Hope that helped!
Greetings,
Herman
