    The start address for executing code is 0x0. That's why your application hex file starts at 0x0.

    These are addresses in the memory space mapped to external flash memory. The external flash is not used for program code execution so a hex file of your application program will usually not refer to it. The external flash is there to store images of the program code which are loaded into RAM at boot. Programs only run in RAM on this device.

    If you are using a debugger, then you aren't using the FLASH at all by default so you don't need to worry about it.....yet.
