board files for 4MB flash

Post by 55jr55 » Sat Dec 04, 2021 6:39 pm

Does anyone have board files they would share for a D1 Mini with 4MB flash? I've looked at the 1 and 2MB files but don't really understand the settings enough to feel confident modifying them to support 4MB.

Regards,
John

The largest build for the ESP8266 is 2Mb+. Note the '+'. The recommended installation method includes autodetecting flash size so you shouldn't need a special build, It certainly detects the 4Mb Flash and builds on my 4Mb ESP8266 board. The relevant bit of the build process:

Code: Select all

...
Configuring flash size...
Auto-detected Flash size: 4MB
Flash params set to 0x004
