Hi Ilko,

I tried several variants to make the function lowlevel_init() weak but without success. If there is no other solution for the problem could you commit my patch. Without this patch I can't post the patch for our PM9261 and PM9263 boards.
I've found that weak functions are only overwritten if the overwriting function is in a file (not archive) that has strongly-linked symbols. Admittedly, I've only done this with C code but expect that the assembly equivalent works the same way. The idea of using weak functions seems great, but suffers from some pretty cumbersome weaknesses :)
cheers, Ben
