How to preserve INFO block - giorgioel - Sep 18 4:19:29 2009

I'm programming an MSP430x149 using IAR compiler.
I'm not able to avoid the INFO block (0x1000-0x10ff) to be initialized at 0xFF when the program is uploaded.
Any suggestion?
(I removed the fill unused memory option in linker table, I declared a _no_init char array[0xff] @0x1000, no results...)
Thank you,
Giorgio

You need to select "Erase main memory" instead of "Erase main and Information memory" under Project->Options->FET Debugger->Download->Flash erase.
