I changed to "used on Posix (Linux/MacOS)" - ie to add the meaning of posix first time it is used. Slightly leaning towards referring this as "Simulation"

This is good. It's not only simulation, as in future our Linux-based boards (such as RPi) should use that as well.

@bkueng Great job - certainly this is understandable. I have done a minor subedit.
My gut feeling is yes to separate sections (not pages).
Definitely. In first instance this could be done just by moving the doc in the summary. Question, is this a pure "new system developer" topic? ie do we need to think about moving this to the developer guide? |

Also changed the NuttX boot: driver failures will not lead to an aborted boot anymore.

I did the splitting and moved it to Concepts. |

Looks great thanks Beat. FYI only I did a minor additional subedit, moved the doc to concepts and created a redirect (decided it is worth it) and copied doc into Korean/Chinese tree (a bit pointless since we're moving to slightly different approach, but hey!). |
Follows from PX4/PX4-Autopilot#10173.
