There is no such thing as rom or bin "file type". These are just names. Important is the binary data within files and their names may hint to one thing or another but are in no way conclusive. If the file provided by shuttle is exactly as big as the flash chip in question, it is probably just fine to feed into flashrom. If not then more investigation is needed. > 2.- running flashrom in probe mode I get > > Found chip set "NVIDIA MCP51". > This chip set is marked as untested. > > > but I guess that means I just have to go ahead and try. Yes, and other versions of the same chipset work just fine. -- Kind regards/Mit freundlichen Grüßen, Stefan Tauner _______________________________________________ flashrom mailing list [email protected] http://www.flashrom.org/mailman/listinfo/flashrom
