Description

I recently purchased the CB1 and Pi Adapter along with this DPI display from BTT:
https://biqu.equipment/collections/lcd/products/bigtreetech-pi-tft43-dip-screen

Now that support has been added for GPIO, is there any way to have the above DPI display working on the CB1? I did manage to get it working with my RPi 3A+ using `dtoverlay` config as per the [instructions](https://github.com/bigtreetech/TFT43-DIP), but I'm a Linux noob and have no idea how to perform the same config on the CB1. (there is no `/boot/config.txt` file?)

Research direction

Start with the linked TFT43-DIP dtoverlay instructions and the CB1 boot configuration, including why /boot/config.txt is absent. Determine whether the DPI display can be supported on CB1 and what configuration is required; done when the display works on CB1 with the documented setup.
