Hi!
I tried to flash a new BIOS to my AOpen i965GMt-LA motherboard. Reading
the ROM worked, but flashing did not. I'll gladly give you more
information, just tell me what you need. :-)
Cheers,
Björn

Good, writing to the flash chip apparently didn't do anything.
This means we have to add special support for your board, programmer or
flash
chip. Please report this on IRC at chat.freenode.net (channel #flashrom) or
mail flashrom@flashrom.org, thanks!
