Hello,
I am new to the TI world and CCS, but I am starting with a relatively simple program and modifying it to load to Flash and run from RAM. The code compiles without any errors, but when I load it to the LaunchPad I recieved the following errors: No source available for "0x3fe493" or No source available for "0x3ff16a" depending on where the memory is mapped to.
I want to use the Blinky example program as a basis for how to copy from Flash to RAM for Stand Alone use and I feel like I might be missing a critical part of the compiler linking functionality, but I am unsure because I am new to this. I was able to successfully get stand alone operation with all the code running from Flash, but as soon as I begin copying to RAM the errors present themselves. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. I have already read through SPRAAU8 on Copying Compiler Sections from Flash to RAM and spru513k on TMS320C28x Assembly Language Tools, but I can't seem to determine where my error lies.
I have attached my SectionCopy.asm and CodeStartBranch.asm for review.
Here is the text from my linker command file:

Nathan,
Did you try using the Flash build configuration provided for the examples in Controlsuite?
Build your example project for Flash (Right click on project & set Build Configuration->Set Active->FLASH then build) and try.
Thanks and regards,
Vamsi
