Q: preferred / suggested way to do full (including filesystem) WiPy / xxPy erase ?

[ubiq_01]

Whereas it is rather helpful that the scripts / filesystem survive a firmware update/upgrade - is there a preferred/suggested way to (e.g. using esptool.py with what command line?) fully erase all the data on a WipY / xxPy and really "start from zero" with programming firmware?

best regards
Ralf

@ubiq_01, you can connect to your device and perform:

import os
os.mkfs('/flash')

That will format the internal storage to it's factory state. Hope it helps ;)
