[jira] [Created] (MYNEWT-520) boot - Allow incompatible image slots

Christopher Collins created MYNEWT-520:
------------------------------------------

             Summary: 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.
