Errors in PSIM

Thu May 2 02:07:27 UTC 2013

Thanks Joel. So, no chance of customizing Psim for 32mb of RAM?

"On real how you can do that or arrange the linker script to have a special
reserved area." I'm not sure I understood this. On the 'production' code I
should find some other way for guaranteeing that space is free, is that it?
