Yes, that's what I'll do.
What about putting a warning message in the code whenever no matching
board could be found. Just to be safe :-)

Yes, when I looked around for good pci vendor/device ids respectively
subsystem ids, I got the impression that are no unambiguous ids.
Identification works perfectly once LinuxBIOS is booted using the
LinuxBios supplied vendor/part.
My suggestion then would be to remove matching of the board base
No. I must add this option on my machine for LinuxBIOS v2587. Without
it, flashrom can't get the vendor and part name of my mainboard.
Mandrian, do you have the same problem?

7468 is the LPC bridge, 746b is the SM function.
Both of these contain bits related to flash
operation.

Hi
I found that I have a different ID for the ISA bridge, so the only
difference between our codes is the device id from 0x746b to 0x7468.

Hi, Mondrian,
Thanks very much! I works now! I found that the function has not been
called before I did some modifications:
1 add a option to the flashrom command line, such as:
-m iwill:dk8_htx
2 I comment the pci device search in the board_match_linuxbios_name
function because it seems that I
Hi, Mondrian,
Unfortunately, after patching flashrom, the results remain the same as
before. Only the page 7 is programmed. I guess I should first check
the WP pin of Savior, and then perhaps I need this patch to program
it. Thanks for your help!
Best,
Ning

Hi,Mondrian
Thats great! I will search for your posts. Thank you very much!

Hi!
You need to enable writing to the flash. In case of the Iwill board,
some SuperIO GPIOs need to be properly set.
I sent an email to the list with a patch attached, which configures
flashrom to handle the iwill dk8_htx correctly.

Hi,
The chip on the motherboard is
AMD-8111 HyperTransport™ I/O Hub
• AMD-8131 HyperTransport™ PCI-X 1.0 Tunnel
• Super I/O: Winbond W83627HF-AW
and the mainboard spec is here:
http://www.iwillusa.com/product_2.asp?p_id=98
Sorry about that I didn't state it clearly before.

The contents are 0xff _before_ you ever tried to program
the device? That means you cannot access those pages at
all.
Typically, on x86 sy
The content of all the other pages are 0xff. And I can't erase the
whole flash chip by -E option. And the last page keep the content I
programmed into.
Peter suggests me that it may be because of WP pin (hardware
protection), but I ca't easily access that pin because of the flash

What happened to the other pages -- did they retain

Hi,
Thanks very much for your reply! I will check the status of WP pin.
But because the flash chip is embedded in the middle of Savior,
perhaps I can't see it clearly. And I haven't tried to flash a chip
directly on the mainboard because I won't take the risk of failing to
booting the system .

I just checked the datasheet and don't find anything strange.
Furthermore, I find these old threads but it seems that there is no
solution for this problem.

Any more suggestions about my prob
Thanks! I will check the datasheet of that flashrom and update the status of it.

And I check the new content after programming Savior. Only the last
page are programmed. The total is 8 pages (512K), and only the content
from 0x7 is correctly programmed. What's the problem? Is there
something wrong with flashrom?
