    I have updated the flash_placement file as you suggested but I am getting now the following errors.

    .text is larger than specified size
    .rodata is larger than specified size

    Hi,

    Seems that's not the solution. Please revert to yours.

    Looks like your text and crypto_data are overflowing into the mbr_params_page. i.e. text is ending at fe33b and crypto_data is ending at fe343, while mbr_params_page is starting at fe000.

    I think you could try to adjust FLASH_START address down to 0xf7000 or lower.
