#Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
58KB (or the 8mb of flash) is not enough for my python scripts i plan to solder a slot to my numworks on the existing sdcard pads

Describe the solution you'd like
Since this would actually not only help me but a ton of hackers what i'd like is adding python IO support for the SD card slot and also some Ion api functions to allow people to make better games, i currently need this because im working on a video player but i dont have enough space for more than 5 minutes of MP4

Additional context
N/A

Summary

Python IO support for the SD card
Ion functions for the SD card READ/WRITE and more
simple FS preferably FAT or a custom one (This is what takes the most time)
usable as boot device (optional)

Actually, Python scripts are stored in RAM (256 Kio on n0100 and n0110, 564 Kio on n0120)
As far as I know, only the n0100 has SD card pads, and this model only has 1MB for the system.
It would be interesting but really complicated, Lambda is meant to add features like this, but it would be really complicated

i have inspected the pcb and i have concluded that it would not require any more than 6 jumpers

a mod board of some sort could be designed or a new pcb (this would require moving all components)

Yes, but you don't know how complicated it is to add compatibiity with this sd card slot

numworks devs said there are ion functions that do basic read/write

I dont think, having an sdcard to store big script/external app would be cool
