Dear Flashrom Team,
As the title suggest, I flashed my old Asus M2V with coreboot but now it
doesn't boot anymore.
I'm guessing it has more to do with the coreboot rom than with the flashing
procedure but I'd like to know if you had an idea to what could have caused
this failure ?
To flash the MB I used the following command :
$ sudo flashrom -p internal -w <mycorebootrom>
It successfully flashed a chip (ST something) which is a removable chip on the
motherboard. So with this success I decided to reboot the computer but then
nothing, screen stays black, no beeping, no keyboard light, only the hard drive
led stays on permanently
What I tested :
I unplugged everything, FDD, HDD, cdrom drive, usb internal connectors, I only
let inside the graphic card (a PCI-E Nvidia GF 6600GT) and a stick of RAM
I tested with another PCI-E Nvidia card (I don't have any other brand to test
with) and with multiple combination of RAM sticks (1, 2 sticks, dual channel
slots or not, 512 MB and 2 GB)
Now the only thing I could try I guess is remove the ST chip and flash it with
an external programmer ? I backed up the original MB rom before flashing.
I hope you'll have an idea on what went wrong, if not my next stop will be the
coreboot team :)
Anyway thanks a lot for your great work !
Best regards,
Pierre
