Hi list!

I'm new to microcontrolers, and I'm tying to program a pic18f4550, 
under gnu/linux and/or freebsd.

The main problem I'm finding is with variables. I can't make them work.

gpasm would say "Warning [231] No memory has been reserved by this instruction." when it sees:

myvar res 1

I tried with:

myvar res 2

with no succesful results, I've tried something like this:

        ;; setup processor and output format                                    
        list p=p18f4550,f=inhx32
        include <p18f4550.inc>

        ;; disable watchdog timer                                               
        config wdt = off
        ;; chip will use internal oscillator (4 mhz)                            
        config fosc = intoscio_ec                                    

        org 0
        goto main

        ;; let `count1' and `count2' live after the previous
        ;; `goto' instruction on code-memory, where shouldn't
        ;; clash with program's instructions
count1 equ 0x6
count2 equ 0x8

        ;; offset our program by 32 bytes, so we have space for the previous and other variables I might want to use
        org 0x20 
main:
        .....

After I started "decoding" hex-files' dumps, doesn't work either, so I'm a bit lost, have tried even more different approaches but I can't get the pic to "respect" and work with any variables other than constants.

This is an example program I wanted to start with:

        ;; setup processor and output format                                                
        list p=pic18f4550,f=inhx32
        include <p18f4550.inc>

        ;; disable watchdog timer                                                           
        config wdt = off
        ;; chip will use internal oscillator (4 mhz)                                        
        config fosc = intoscio_ec

        org 0

counter res     2

main:
        ;; portd will be all outputs
        clrf    PORTD
        clrf    TRISD

restart:
        ;; give the memory address location `0x0' the value `5' 
        movlw   5
        movwf   0x0

loop:
        ;; decrement this value till it's 0, what will cause the

        decfsz  0x0, f
        goto    loop

        btg     PORTD, RD1
        goto    restart
        end
