I am trying to follow the instructions found in SLAA450 Section 5.1 about developing and testing a custom BSL for the 5438A, but it says to use the "FLASH_AREA" linker file found in the CONFIG directory, but I don't seem to have the FLASH_AREA linker file anywhere in the .zip that I downloaded from http://software-dl.ti.com/msp430/msp430_public_sw/mcu/msp430/CustomBSL/latest/index_FDS.html. I tried using the MSP430F5438.xcl file from my Z-Stack project, but I get some very peculiar behavior when I try to debug through the code; for example, I can breakpoint to the beginning of PI_receivePacket(), but after setting the RX_StatusFlags, it jumps from that statement down all the way down into one of the else if statements (from clicking the "Next Statement" in the degbugger). Does anyone know where to get the FLASH_AREA linker file that the app note talks about using to debug the BSL code?
Thanks,
Matt
