Request to hide created but unused slots in Kexec-Multiboot.
In OpenATV, the created slots appear empty.

empty

I will ask you to hide empty slots like they did in OpenBH.
OpenBH unused slots are hidden.
Thanks in advance.

Why do you want to hide resources that may be helpful to users? If there are slots free that can be used then I think it appropriate that users be shown that the resources are there and available for use. If they are hidden then their availability might be forgotten.

I think it looks better visually when you can't see the empty slots.
You also don't have to go through empty slots if you want to go (in my case) from slot 1 to slot 4.
I don't know if kexec multiboot users have short memory ๐Ÿ˜„ to forget that you have empty slots. ๐Ÿ˜ƒ
If it stays as it is now, it won't be the end of the world.
Thank you. Regards.

Also if the image is installed on the sdcard it shows as usb.

As in the photo below.

I like this idea. It would be nice to have it as a user-configurable option Hide unused multi-boot slots

This makes no sense if you ask me.
What if you wanna select an empty slot to flash an image on this slot!

By default, all slots would be visible. If the user had set their preference to hide unused, they would show them again by changing the Hide unused multi-boot slotssetting to Yes.

Hide unused multi-boot slots

This option is not needed, just modify the code.
Image selector - slots are hidden
SHI

Flash image - slots still available.
