RM44L520: Memory mapping issue with FreeRTOS

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: HALCOGEN

Hello, 

I have been working on a project with the RM44L520PZ and I noticed that there is no project type available for this processor with FreeRTOS included. To get around this I took the FreeRTOS files from another project and added them to the project with the Halcogen created RM44L520PZ device configuration files. When I tried creating a task to test if this worked, I got the following errors:

warning #10247-D: creating output section ".kernelHEAP" without a SECTIONS specification
warning #10247-D: creating output section ".kernelBSS" without a SECTIONS specification

Here is the generated sys_link memory map and section configuration:

Since Halcogen isn't generating the memory maps and section configurations needed by FreeRTOS, I created a new project with the RM44L520PGE_FREERTOS template in halcogen and I got the following memory maps and section configuration from the generated sys_link file:

I copied those over into the sys_link file in my original project and the earlier errors are gone but the project won't run properly on my board. Does the 100pin version of this processor require different memory mapping than the 144pin version when using an RTOS or is there some other issue that I'm missing?
