*Senior judge assigned by order pursuant to Iowa Code section 602.9206 (1999).
PER CURIAM.
Defendant, Ricco Cooper, appeals from the judgment and sentence entered following his guilty plea to possession of marijuana with intent to deliver, a drug tax stamp violation, and possession of a firearm by a felon.  See Iowa Code §§ 124.401(1)(d), (e), 124.411, 453B.12, 724.26 (1999).  Defendant contends the district court erred by failing to include in its sentencing order an accounting of credit for the time he served in custody prior to sentencing.  He also contends his trial counsel was ineffective in failing to fully advise him about his plea agreement, and in failing to pursue a claim of prosecutorial misconduct based upon a breach of the agreement.  
	Defendant’s claim regarding the district court’s sentencing order is foreclosed by State v. Hawk, 616 N.W.2d 527 (Iowa 2000).  We reject it for the same reasons set forth in that case.  Defendant’s remaining claims concerning ineffective assistance of counsel are too general to preserve for postconviction relief proceedings and we decline to do so.  See State v. White, 337 N.W.2d 517, 519-20 (Iowa 1983).  We affirm the district court judgment and sentence.  
	AFFIRMED.  
	This opinion shall not be published.
