ESP32-PICO-V3-02 with 8MB partition table is not booting

I am having troubles using the ESP32-PICO-V3-02 with the full flash size of 8MB. Using the “default.csv” is working fine, but when switching to the “default_8mb.csv” it does not boot any more… 😦

I already had a short chat with @maxgerhardt (thanks again!) here and he suggested me to file an issue here 😃

@slaesh Only esp32 rev.1 and some rev.2 needs this fix. Since rev.3 it is not needed anymore. Pico variant is a very new version and does not need this fix. Many boards.json are probably wrong… A quick look at the Arduino boards.txt there are wrong entrys too. Since esp32 is only available since a long wnile as rev.3 many boards would not need. You can check with esptool.py. If you get rev.1 and rev.2 you need if any other version you will not need. AND sorry for the wrong “looking” 🤦‍♂️

I am wondering… do I need fix-esp32-psram-cache-issue?

I found this commit… https://github.com/platformio/platform-espressif32/commit/1dc190d9f77437290a356b9200d19be55b2d6f83

when do we need it, when not @Jason2866 ? =)
