Hi, It seems to have worked; I cloned a chip with -p internal just fine. However, flashrom does not detect my new chip size correctly, it also shows up as "Opaque Flash Chip" (as does the original one), although programming it succeeds with an image that's extracted from the original, smaller chip.
Both the original part number and the new part number are not officially supported, but for the new one, a very similar one at the same size is supported. Any ideas how to at least get the size detected correctly for these? The new chip I'm using is a Macronix MX25L25673G, versus the officially listed MX25L25635F.
