Hi Jacob, Excellent point about the flash usage, and figuring out how to perhaps make it easier for packages to play well together in a single filesystem without hijacking the config system out of necessity.
I dont agree with that comment, whats thats actually doing is turning on the config subsystem and telling it to create its own nffs. Then hes coattail riding on config's nffs partition.the 'way' to create your own nffs seems to be to disable config entirely, because in the bsp config fcb and nffs both want to use FLASH_AREA_NFFS, and then add - "@apache-mynewt-core/fs/nffs" But obviously it seems like youd be well within you're rights to share a disk resource between a bunch of packages. However the way config and most packages work is to take a whole flash area for themselves and pass it to nffs or fcb or whatever, so they actually dont seem to share very well? Maybe config should be less opinionated and take a premade fs, which the user (or bsp) preconfigured as an fcb or fat or nffs or whatever. Then it wouldnt feel like im using configs disk (and if I turn config off, the disk I was using wouldnt go away)
