Dear flashrom supporters, Can You help me please with a Problem that accured during flashing an older macBookPro ? That would be great!
I tried to flash an up to date ROM-firmware from an equal machine (with Serial Number and KRID adapted to the goal target machines values) to a apple MacBookPro9,1 mid 2012 15 inch. The machine is currently running from an Ubuntu USB-Installation, the rom I tried to flash is in users root /mbp2-6_migrieren.rom , a backup of the original rom is /mbp2-6_original-kaputt.rom. The original rom is an early (first?!?) version of that model. It makes several problems and could never be updated by macOs System- or Firmware Update, even with system integrity protection disabled. Here is the write command and its output. You can contact me via signal messenger +49170 9326549 or phone / email as attached below. Thank You for reading this and hopefully some helpful advice!
