Hello, assuming a carrier board has a connection from an SD card slot to the VOXL chip, does the bootloader flashed on the chip support booting system images from this SD card? I couldn't find any documentation or other forums posts discussing this besides https://forum.modalai.com/topic/1780/could-microsd-card-support-in-voxl2-system-image
Wasn't sure if this discussion was just referring to the ability to read/write an SD card once the system is already running

@sja123 No, unfortunately, we do not currently support boot from SD card.
