I breadboarded up our 2006 RC, and now I'm in the frustrating situation that I can't duplicate the error, even using the exact same .hex files as in the pits at BAE. So I couldn't get the error to show up, so I can't tell if 18f8722beta.lkr is doing anything. Anyone yet found a highly reliable way to duplicate this? (very frustrating, since it was showing the error reliably in the pit)

As for 18f8722_2.44.lkr, if you try to use it as provided, you get a "Error - section '_entry_scn' type is non-overlay and absolute but occurs in more than one input file" from the linker, which requires that you comment out the first "FILE" line in the .lkr script. After that, IFI Loader won't upload it, giving an "invalid address : 0x20 (Correct Range: 0x800-0x7fff)" error.
