    If you are using the MMU and you've generated a *.dts file to be linked then I'd bet that your sopc2dts has some entries that need to be tweeked. If there are unknown entries then you need to fix those first.

    Yes i am trying to use MMU and i've generated .dts file to be linked. But i am not sure how to fix dts file. Please help me.

    My dts file includes:
