Can you explain why doing a read operation failed? I expected that reads would 
work and writes would fail.

Thanks,
Greg

Hello Greg,

as i briefly mentioned in my previous mail, locked regions are a bit tricky and 
flashrom can not deal with them (i.e. unlock them). We are working on 
understanding how to unlock them, but intel does not provide us any 
documentation so please do not expect a solution soon.

Since the SMBIOS information indicates that your company is assembling the 
firmware itself, maybe you could arrange that the ME region is not locked? As 
far as we know this is not a problem in everyday operation or for an update 
with flashrom (contrary to the scaring intel documentation that tries to 
convince you from the opposite).
