Syntax error in linker script

Question

I have a syntax error on line 8
I have read the GNU docs concerning the syntax and managed to solve the syntax error but got incompatibility issues
Here's my script:

ENTRY (loader)
OUTPUT ("kernel.bin")

addr = 0x100000;
SECTIONS
{
        .text addr: 
        ALIGN(0x1000)
        {
            *(.text*);
            *(.rodata*);
        }

        .data:
        ALIGN(0x1000)
        {
            *(.data*);
        }

        .bss:
        ALIGN(0x1000)
        {
            *(.bss*);
        }
}

Please excuse me as I'm just trying to startup with OSDeving with a Hello World sample

Answer 1

Here is what my linker script looked like before I moved my kernel to the higher half:

OUTPUT_FORMAT("elf32-i386","elf32-i386","elf32-i386")
OUTPUT_ARCH(i386)

ENTRY(entry)
SECTIONS
{
    . = 0x00100000;
    start = .;
    .text : 
    {
        *(.text)
        . = ALIGN(4096);
    }

    .data :
    {
        *(.data)
        *(.rodata)
        . = ALIGN(4096);
    }

    .bss :
    {
        *(.bss)
        *(stack_bottom)
        *(stack_top)
        . = ALIGN(4096);
    }
    end = .;
    kernel_end = .;
}

I believe the issue is lack of space between ".text" and the colon. I had ld give me errors like that for a different project. If you want to designate where each section should be located, do it like this:

.text : AT(ADDR(.text) - 0xC0000000)
    {
        *(.text)
        . = ALIGN(4096);
    }
