Hi,
The automatic mount of the ROMFS assumes that it is stored at a
predefined location in the board config, that it will be mounted at
/etc, and that it is mounted for the goal of using rc scripts, which may
not be the case at all.
I have a changes in my local apps directory that decouples things and
makes it much easier to use, that can be turned in a patch for the apps
repository.
I have time for this if another developer is interested.
I suggest that Mark contacts me in direct email (or on list) so we can
share this, test it, and contribute it to upstream nuttx-apps. It is not
done yet because I dont keep in sync with upstream apps very often, so
it has to be done first.

There are several examples using a ROMFS file system in apps/ and
nuttx/boards/. There is one at nuttx/boards/sim/sim/sim/src/etctmp
with build logic that generates nuttx/boards/sim/sim/sim/src/etctmp.c.
Normally, you would probably have to mount the filesystem yourself,
but in this case, the ROMFS filesystem is mounted at /etc/
automatically by NSH based on NSH configuration settings.
In the KERNEL build mode, all apps are built as executable ELF files
in an a bin/ directory (but no file system is created). A directory
like that populated with ELF executables could be provided on any
media for a target file system.

I am looking at adding a small file system to my application and I
would like to add a number of files to the image as part of the build.
I have configured the build using the raspberrypi-pico-w:nsh-flash
configuration and I think I have figured out how t add files by
editing the rp2040_flash_initialize.S file and I have added simple
entries to this file.
What I would like to do is add several files, all less than 1K to the
file system.
I was hoping this could be done outside of the main NuttX tree
(prefereably in my application directory).
Is this achievable?
Regards,
Mark
