Quick background: I am building a simple breakout board for an esp-wroom-02 module, and noticed what seems to be an error in the current
esptool.py
ESP8266 "Boot Mode Selection" documentation.Notably, the boot mode documentation lists
GPIO0
in some sections correctly, butGPIO9
later in reference to the same thing.Specifically, it lists
GPIO9
as the boot mode selection pin that must be connected to DTR, when both documentation for the esp-wroom-02 module and esp8266EX microcontroller listGPIO0
as the boot mode selection pin.Hopefully this is not just a misunderstanding with the documentation; I've been searching for that mythical GPIO9 on the esp8266 for a while! 🤣
This change fixes the following bug(s):
Error in the "Boot Mode Selection" documentation for the ESP8266, where it claims
GPIO9
is the selection pin instead ofGPIO0
I have tested this change with the following hardware & software combinations:

I have run the esptool.py automated integration tests with this change and the above hardware:
