Hello Gerard! thanks for letting us know about this. in the future please always provide at least a log of "flashrom -V", or if possible the log of the actual write procedure. this prevents any misinterpretations and other mistakes and is even less work than compiling such a nice summary ;) i have marked the used flash chip as fully tested and also added the board to the list of known boards. will commit that later. -- Kind regards/Mit freundlichen Grüßen, Stefan Tauner _______________________________________________ flashrom mailing list [email protected] http://www.flashrom.org/mailman/listinfo/flashrom
