Can't get ESP8266-12E to boot properly!

I can't seem to figure out why my ESP8266-12E won't boot up right. It is totally unresponsive, although I do see a message that says:

ets Jan 8 2013,rst cause:2, boot mode:(7,6)

waiting for host


Any advice?

I guess you do not have the GPIO15 connected via the resistor to the ground. And this is necessary.

If you don't have all those parts handy, I have found for all five of my ESP-01, that CH_PD can be connected directly to 3.3V and that GPIO0, GPIO2, and RESET can be left unconnected.
