The sparc64 lds script is by no menas the worst to look at but a anyway a good place to start. In the following patch serie I did: -> Introduce a C-like indention style -> Introduce use of PAGE_SIZE as replacement for hardcoded constant -> Consoildate initramfs definition While browsing the other arch lds files I saw many other smaller items that could be consolidated but creating a define for something like 3-5 lines was to push it too much. If there are a number of sections that could be defined together I would like to combine then in a common section but I do know too little about the linker scripts to determine this. The other archs shall have a similar clean-up over time. sparc64 was just a good place to start because David had expressed that he liked the consolidation. Sam
