| - | Interesting. On the left is ''ota_0''. It has a boot sequence of ''01'' and a CRC check (not covered in this article). This partition will boot each time the ESP32 is reset. On the right is ''ota_1'', and there is nothing here to indicate if it should boot. | + | Interesting. On the left is ''ota_0''.

| In our case, the second sector has a new entry, the ''02'' sequence. This is for the firmware on ''ota_1''. ''02'' is greater than ''01'' so this is the firmware selected for boot by the bootloader. | In our case, the second sector has a new entry, the ''02'' sequence.

| How an OTA partition is determined from sequence numbers in the otadata partition is not explained in the documentation, but is explained in the code.
