it seems the issue is already mitigated by other changes in the core
of flashrom (though, the actual bug is still there). For the moment,
it would be nice if you could try flashrom-1.0 to see if the issue
persists.

Heh, I missed this (your other mail went into another folder). So you
can ignore my other mail, I guess.

Though, if you want to try a patch for the error you've seen before, let
me know :)

Try to verify (flashrom -v) the image you just wrote. I hope it just
succeeded but run into an error afterwards.

>From your log:

This is already beyond your actual flash chip (0x80), so it al-
ready wrote the image. I also found the cause for flashrom running off,
your firmware descriptor seems misconfigured which triggered a bug in
flashrom:

>> 0xD0: 0x (FPB)

This register is supposed to be 0 instead *shrug*. But there's obviously
something to fix in flashrom to handle wrong values more gracefully.

So, hope your board is fine,
Nico

whether or not flashing is safe despite this message depends on your
board. If you provide a verbose log for this board, we might be able
to tell you more. For instance, newer systems with the BIOS flash con-
nected through SPI to the southbridge or almost always safe to flash
(you can see in the manpage how to tell flashrom that your board is
not a laptop, or that it should flash anyway).

Hope that helps,
Nico

Maybe it would've been easier to just tear down that PC and directly
connect to a BIOS chip (In-System Programming, using some test clip to
avoid the soldering, or maybe your chip is socketed so you could
remove it and insert to your hardware programmer). Although this way
requires you to have the external programmer, there are some models
like CH341A which could be got for really cheap ($2-$3 from China in
this case). And there is 100% confidence that this way will work,
regardless of your chipset and other factors

Thank you for information.
One more question.
I have industrial PC, manufacturer didn't  provide any BIOS tool.
When i run flashrom i get the warning about problems with unsupported
laptops BIOSes and the following message:
"Aborting.
Error: Programmer initialization failed"
I use command "flashrom -p internal"
How could i fix it?

Hi,

there is nothing wrong. On old boards such settings are often saved in
the CMOS NVRAM, which is not part of the flash memory.

2018-08-06 Thread Владимир Амельянович
Hello.
Please could you help me?
I have chipset "Intel ICH7/ICH7R". It is marked as fully supported. I did
the following steps 1) made backup 2) changed some setting(disable internal
audio) 3) made backup again.  I made hexdump comparision of files from
steps 1), 3) and there are no changes at all. What did i wrong?

Best regards,
Vladimir

Well, that turned out to be a bit too optimistic on my part... we have
re-enabled the mute mode for unregistered users for the time being. But
anybody can join the channel and request permission to speak by sending
a message to one of the operators if need be. Just registering your
current nickname on freenode is of course preferred:
/msg NickServ REGISTER password yourem...@example.com
when connected with your desired nickname.

Hi Владимир,

you need not only to register but also to identify (I am not sure if
that happens automatically when you register). Have you done that?
The restrictions is due to a spam wave on freenode and we are looking
for alternatives but that will take a while.
