How to create partition tables on pycom (fipy) ?

[lucy_in_the_sky]

Hi there!

I'm trying to create some partitions on my fipy's file system. Since pycom runs on an ESP32 I went for a look
at espressif.com, which gave me a reasonable understanding of the subject. Then again, I'm a beginner with
pycom and even micropython. I've done it with an Arduino, but that works elsewise.

Espressif provides some nice information and even a tool (python):
https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-idf/en/latest/esp32/api-guides/partition-tables.html#python-api

I will have several questions, but for now:

1. I can't even import the module. (I work on a Mac)
2. would you rather work with the terminal oder with atom? does it even matter?
3. REPL is cool, but it confuses me, when and how to use properly in such a situation.
4. is there anything I absolutely shouldn't do while working on partitions?

Does anybody has some experience with partitioning (on a mac/linux)?

thanks in advance.

cheers, lucy
