Timmer & timer-ticks on 68360

[gerke.kok at ascom.nl]

Thanks for the reaction.

Our target has a clock of 25MHz. This is I _believe_ this is the same as
Eric uses. But still the ticker program comes up after 30 sec. and says only
5 secs have past...

As for that linkcmds, I would like to see the memory configuration also in
that way, we have many targets with the same setup except for the memory.
Could this also be done in linkcmds? Or should I define a simple function
that does the job and implement this in the real project specific code?
wkr,
Gerke
