File System
The LPS8N has a 16MB flash and a 64MB RAM. The /var and /tmp directories are in the RAM, so
contents stored in /tmp and /var will be erased after rebooting the device. Other directories are
in the flash and will remain after reboot.
The Linux system uses around 8MB ~10MB flash size which means there is not much room for
user to store data in the LPS8N flash.
You can use an external USB flash memory device to extend the size of flash memory for storage.
