Daniel Wegener commented on MYNEWT-520:
---------------------------------------
If I get it correctly, this allows us to create kind of "single image" bsps for
devices with smaller flash memory (like the nrf51)?
> boot - Allow incompatible image slots

> Key: MYNEWT-520
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MYNEWT-520
> Project: Mynewt
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Bootloader
> Reporter: Christopher Collins
> Assignee: Christopher Collins
> Fix For: v1_0_0_rel
>
>
> Currently, the boot loader immediately fails if the two image slots have
> different flash characteristics (different sector count or different sector
> sizes).
> Instead, the boot loader should only require compatible slots if a swap is
> required. If the two image slots are not compatible, the boot loader should
> just boot into slot 0 unconditionally.
