The problem is quite likely that a GPIO pin of some chip is connected to the two write protect pins on the flash chip. You can run flashrom -V to show their status of them. Please send that output also. (Or combine and run flashrom -V -v so we can get the verify output in one go.) > As the MCP51 flashrom status is marked with a question mark I > thought this could be interesting. Any flashrom failure is interesting! Thanks for the report. //Peter -- coreboot mailing list: [email protected] http://www.coreboot.org/mailman/listinfo/coreboot
