Let me translate that for you: A := the percentage does go backwards B := we need to give the user a really good reason He said A -> B. Having a RESET enum value allows us to fulfill B, thus: RESET -> B which suffices to say: RESET -> (A -> B) I don't see a contradiction ;) Nico _______________________________________________ flashrom mailing list flashrom@flashrom.org https://mail.coreboot.org/mailman/listinfo/flashrom
