[En-Nut-Discussion] Nut/OS Initialization

[Harald Kipp]

Hi Nathan,

I assume you responded to the wrong message, which confuses me a bit. If 
I got it right, you tried to answer my question about how the linker 
becomes aware of the new structure.

Or I failed to fully understood Thiago's post, to which you responded. 
Thus, if I'm talking rubbish now, you know at least why. ;-)

You mean some kind of weak definition, like we use it for interrupt 
vectors. Mh...smart attempt.

However, that would mean for Nut/OS, that we waste a lot of valuable RAM 
for the default structures.
