And it is listed as TEST_OK_PREW in flashchips.c, so we have some tester somewhere (Uwe). By the way, since we don't probe for that chip anymore, we have to change the chip to TEST_OK_REW|TEST_BAD_PROBE. >> - whether we can write 0xFF to the chip after probing, triggering a >> reset for most chips. >> > > We did try writing the product ID exit command, and unfortunately it > did not help. > Yes, that's why I suggested 0xFF. > Note that the chip still responds fine to LPC reads, data is > returned, but any write commands are ignored.
