[Ovmsdev] make apt-flash destination location?

[Mark Webb-Johnson]

The app-flash always flashes the ‘factory’ partition. If you ‘make flash’ it will also overwrite the bootloader, partition table, and switch back to factory for you.

You can also tell the module to boot from factory with ‘ota boot factory’ (and ota_0, ota_1 for the ota partitions).

Regards, Mark.

P.S. You can manually flash (using the esptool.py script) to a specific partition, using partitions.csv to tell you the offsets.
