Summary
This PR changes all of the RP2040 documentation (chip and all RP2040-based boards) to use the 2.0.0 SDK version in their installation instructions. I have also moved all of the information from the boards'
README.txt
files into theirindex.rst
files to help with transitioning the old READMEs into the new RST format.Closes #13566, since now all pages document requirement to install picotool.
This PR comes from InSpace.
Impact
The installation instructions will now be up to date with the latest changes in the NuttX kernel which support the 2.0.0 version of the SDK. This should help avoid confusion for first time users who are using an RP2040-based board and encounter a cryptic build error because they cloned the 1.1.4 version and boot files cannot be found.
This all removes the old README.txt files and moves the relevant information into RST files like all newer documentation pages are doing.
Testing
I performed a local build of the documentation with
make html
and verified that there are no build errors. I also visually inspected each documentation page's generated HTML rendered in my browser to make sure that all formatting rendered how I expected.
