The switch for boot have two modes of selection, one position for switching to USB boot when you slide it to one side (means to connect to GND), the other position for switching to NAND boot when you slide it to another side (means to connect to High); this switch will locate on the bottom side, the default boot we can define after producing. Could you describe more in details in what kinds of scenario will be like at user side? May we slightly didn't take consideration well.

This switch will be accessible from the user? I think that, this switch can create user problems, if you move the switch to boot mode
I'll check them later, sorry I have to check the gerber files in these two days.
Can you please check the file:

Hi,After confirmed with part vendor and checked available layout placement, the selected slide switch[1] for boot selection is located around reset key. Please ref. to [2].
No, my ideal was totally not good. so we'll have a real like slide switch[1] for bottom of board or slide switch[2] for side of board. But I have to check if having bottom or side of device from layout space check. And check with vendor which one is the most popular and easier get.
Will keep list posted.
Thanks,
Adam
It will need to drill a small hole on bottom mechanical case, so will be a little ugly from bottom view.
