Hi, So I took a huge leap of faith, and used flashrom to update my bios. My motherboard is gigabyte GA-G33-DS3R, lspci attached.
I used: flashrom -c MX25L8005 -w g33ds3r.f7h as it had that chip (1024K) and another unknown one (0K). It took around 1 minute. btw, that worked on linux 2.6.24.7, but on linux 2.6.26 (which I need for other device support), I get: # flashrom -r bios.bin Calibrating delay loop... OK. No coreboot table found. Found chipset "Intel ICH9R", enabling flash write... Can't mmap memory using /dev/mem: Invalid argument linux 2.6.26 has an option for filtering userspace access to /dev/mem, I tried both on and off but that didn't fix it. Regards, Laurence
