Eclipse ARM mbed cannot move location counter backward error

Question

while I was following this tutorial https://developer.mbed.org/cookbook/eclipse-for-building-and-debugging I run on a error building the project on Eclipse (I followed all the steps untill the first build project at which point I received the following error):

../../external/mbed/libraries/mbed/targets/cmsis/TARGET_NXP/TARGET_LPC11UXX/TOOLCHAIN_GCC_ARM/TARGET_LPC11U24_401/LPC11U24.ld:50 cannot move location counter backwards (from 00000238 to 00000200) collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status make: *** [LPC11U24/FileTest.elf] Error 1

Since ld is involved I think the problem is related to the linker but I have no clue what to do and where to look at. I'm working in Debian 32 bit and Eclipse LUNA.

我发现了问题，选择了错误的工具链：linux gcc而不是交叉gcc。
