Here is an example script that I'm using to read the flash contents to a file once and update it as I flash newer versions of the software:
#!/bin/sh flashrom="flashrom" programmer="ft2232_spi:type=openmoko,divisor=8" contents="~/flash-contents.img" image="$1" if [ -z $image ] then echo "Reading initial flash contents" timeb=$( date +%s ) $flashrom -p $programmer -r $contents timea=$( date +%s ) echo "Time: "$(( $timea - $timeb ))" seconds" else echo "Writing new flash contents" timeb=$( date +%s ) $flashrom -p $programmer -w $image -C $contents --noverify timea=$( date +%s ) cp $image $contents echo "Time: "$(( $timea - $timeb ))" seconds" fi _______________________________________________ flashrom mailing list flashrom@flashrom.org http://www.flashrom.org/mailman/listinfo/flashrom
