FATAL: vmlinux is truncated

FATAL: vmlinux is truncated

[Stephane Lambert]

Hello all,
I'm porting uclinux on the Cortus Aps3 Processeur. When I compile, I 
obtain a FATAL error: vmlinux is truncated.
I've done several tries by modifying the vmlinux script (vmlinux.lds.S) 
and finally I can fix the problem by removing the Heap section.So it's 
seems this error is a vmlinux script problem. But I would like to 
understand what is happening to avoid this problem after, and what this 
error really means, and add my Heap section correcly.
Could someone help me please?
Thanks in advance.

Stephane Lambert

Sorry, this has nothing to do with GDB.
