Of course. _start is where the execution of the code starts, i. e. the
entry point for U-Boot. There is no reason to expect that this might
be at the begin of any specific section.

GUIs  are  virtually  useless.  Learn  tools.  They're  configurable,
scriptable, automatable, cron-able, interoperable, etc. We don't need
no brain-dead winslurping monolithic claptrap.
