I'm not sure I got that right -- I'm currently preparing a patch for your Lanparty UT NF4 Ultra-D. Whether or not you flash your chip in that board, or in another supported board (by flashrom), or in some external programmer doesn't matter; you'll have to insert the flashed chip with coreboot into the Lanparty UT NF4 Ultra-D either way, though. > The firmware chip of the secondary computer (leonis) is a > > PMC Flash > MGN59 > 0312 > Pm49FL004T-33JC > > Seems to be fully supported by flashrom according to the main site. The chip itself, yes. This is not sufficient though, there could be mainboard-specific hacking required for flashrom to work, and you cannot find out unless you try writing an image on a chip _in_ that board. IMPORTANT: Only do that with an _empty_ or otherwise unused ROM chip, as this may "break" your chip if it does _not_ work properly.
