The following may be a bit hard to follow, but I think
that it will solve your problem.

I think that this warning indicates an incomplete
Linker Command File. I suspect that your vectors file
is specified to go into a unique memory section that
is not specified in your LCF. Look in your vectors
file - it should have a line near the top of the file
with a '.sect' directive. like the line below
.sect ".intvecs"
The name in quotes [.intvecs] may be different in your
case. This same name should appear in the "SECTIONS"
portion of the LCF like below-
SECTIONS
{
".intvecs" > .vecs

The name on the right of the above [.vecs], should
appear in the MEMORY portion of the LCF like below-

MEMORY
{
.vecs: o = 00000000h, l = 00000200h

Yes, you are correct. I have solved the problem with your guidance.

Thank you.
