Hi Quan,

I have tested the zip-filesystem project and have some question to ask you.

1. The offset of zip file writing to the flash is described in \debug\____.sh file. It overwrite the zip-filesystem app address, if app is downloaded to the flash. Yes?

2. I can change the the "location" of bin2flash in the \debug\_____.sh file to avoid the overwritting. Yes?

Or in the Nios II SDK Shell to generate by inputing command.

3. rugbybloke said, to decode the last line and the second line of ext_flash.flash file to calculate the app size in flash. But I do not know how to do that. Can tell me?

Thank you.
