RE: [avr-gcc-list] ElfCoff Error parsing symbol

[Corand van Strien]

Hi,

I also get an error with the elfcoff tool.
The error message is:

c:/avrgcc/bin/elfcoff controller.elf coff controller.cof controller.sym
 : 826
  : 678
   : 563
    : 387
Error on parsing symbol      181 -> Type : 804x Desc :
NUTDEVICE:t(9,1)=(9,2)=xs_NUTDEVICE:
Ended

I am using an ATMEGA161 device with the AvrFreaks gcc. avr-gcc -v says:
