You need access to the chromeos-firmwareupdate script and flashrom as documented here: http://www.coreboot.org/pipermail/coreboot/2014-February/077158.html You could ask your friend to copy chromeos-firmwareupdate as well as flashrom to your machine. The script is self hosting and flashrom is statically linked: # ldd /usr/sbin/flashrom not a dynamic executable -Aaron -- coreboot mailing list: [email protected] http://www.coreboot.org/mailman/listinfo/coreboot
