missing 200 ohm resistors on sdio lines

4.7k pullup on CH_PD https://github.com/al177/esp8089/issues/4

rpi needs dtoverlay=sdio,poll_once=false

it's still not clear to me do I have to remove spi flash or not

newer project with simpler overview

it suggests 33 ohm resistors on sdio, includes dts overlay)

https://hackaday.io/project/8678/instructions also suggest 33 ohm resistors...

clear the QE (quad enable) bit in the sreg2 of a W25Q40BV or similar

bootloader

IO15 -> 3V3

My best guess from espressif powerpoint this is sdio boot mode
