You must edit your linker script and adapt it for you board.

The error means that the combined size of all objects that get linked
in front of the envrionment occupy all space until 0xffc03f72,  which
makes  it  impossible  to  the  linker  to  place  the environment at
0xffc02400, because it "cannot move location counter backwards".
