Dual Boot Firmware/web control

[piet-pompies]

Hi all.

First time poster, long time lurker here.

I have a machine that I use for CNC and 3d printing I was wondering if anyone know if it is possible to have both ooznest workbee firmware/WorkBeeControl and duet3D/Web Control running on the same board? obviously not at the same time, but is there a way to choose between the two without having to upload/change firmware files back and forth?

Thank you in advance, I hope my question is not too confusing.

I think so. You could create two macro files with M471 in them to rename the www directory.

Or just swap the SD card over?

@chrishamm and @dc42 Thank you! both great options that did not cross my mind. is the "base" firmware file the same between the two? and the only difference is the web control / WorkbeeControl (www directory) ? but I guess SD cards are an easy and safe way probably.

Perhaps we should extend M505 to allow the /www and /macros folders to be redirected too?

@dc42 Yes, sounds like a good idea to me. DWC and DSF should be able to deal with dynamic directories already.

OK, I'll add it to the 3.2 work list.
