Thanks Edward. I am simply wondering if I will be able to 1) upgrade the chromebook EC firmware from "stock linux", without running chromeos, either using Google's flashrom, or with the stock flashrom, and similarly, 2) if I will be able to write the main flash using stock flashrom? Or instead, should I simply use Google's flashrom fork? For an Intel chromebook - geminilake - would I always be "safe" just compiling and using the Google flashrom from https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromiumos/third_party/flashrom/+/refs/heads/master without chromeos, instead of using stock flashrom? There won't be any weird "write protect" problems?
