[stella] DASM question

[Gene Johannsen <gej@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hey:

I'm writing code to copy a chunk of ROM into RAM.  I'm not sure yet how
big the chunk will be, so I'm trying to make dasm compute the size of
the chunk and reserve the memory, like this:

 SEG.U ram
 ORG $80

ramchunk ds [endchunk - startchunk + 1]
variable ds 1   ;   These two lines will give me
value    ds 1   ;   Label Mismatch errors

        .
        .
        .

 SEG code
 ORG $F000
        .
        .
        .

        LDX #[endchunk - startchunk]
copyloop
        LDA chunk,X
        STA ramchunk,X
        DEX
        BPL copyloop

        .
        .
        .

startchunk 
        .byte 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 ...
endchunk


I get Label Mismatch errors on lines that obviously do work.  I get no
error on the line with the expression on it.

Can anyone help?
