I think I'm seeing the same thing, flashrom doesn't seem to be able to see the BIOS chip (although it does find the northbridge correctly). So I'm using a windows 98se boot floppy without the ramdisk, with dos-mode USB drivers, award's aflash, and a usb flash drive that I'm using to transfer built bios' with. I'd almost say it works better than flashrom, since I don't need to boot a full linux system to flash, but that's just my opinion (and this situation). -Corey -- linuxbios mailing list [email protected] http://www.openbios.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxbios
