To set a custom application start vector define in your "board.h": #define BOARD_FLASH_APP_START 0x08020000 The default start vectors are still 0x08004000 on stm32f3 and 0x08010000 on stm32f4. Other common start vectors on stm32f4 are 0x08008000 and 0x08020000.

With this PR we can set a custom application start in "board.h":
#define BOARD_FLASH_APP_START 0x08020000The default start vectors are still 0x08004000 on stm32f3 and 0x08010000 on stm32f4.
Other common start vectors on stm32f4 are 0x08008000 and 0x08020000.
A script or makefile of another project can set the app start like that:
CFLAGS="-DBOARD_FLASH_APP_START=0x08004000" make -C <path-to-tinyuf2> BOARD=... BOARD_DIR= ... allThis works fine, but is not overly obvious. I agree to abandon the idea of a shorter name "APP_START" in my PR #162. But I would prefer to set the app start using
make ... BOARD_FLASH_APP_START=0x08004000 all. However this requires some changes to tinyuf2 makefiles.
