ESP32 Forum

I am comparing the partitition table bin files created by idf.py build and by gen_esp32part.py. My IDF version is v4.0-beta1.

sdkconfig has MD5 set for yes:
CONFIG_PARTITION_TABLE_MD5=y

But I seem not to have the MD5 in my flash after programming, nor in /build/partition_table/partition-table.bin

However, if I run: gen_esp32part.py partitions.csv partitions.bin
there is the expected extra data starting at 0x180.

Is this a bug in the v4.0-beta1 build tool?

Yes, logic is wrong

Ah, okay. I unchecked this in menuconfig and now the MD5 is appended to the partitions bin file.

Has this "logic inversion" been fixed in latest branch, or will it be?

Thanks for quick answer, btw!
