Sorry for my try to explain thing, but i mean provide useful output of such tools for flashrom support. And such output for board, which you are _really going_ to port, to help other people point you. I agree that my point me be wrong, but I think, if from 100 ppl, tried to do the port, at least 1 will do that completely - that kind of win! Of course I not mean that anyone can just send some information, and give a working board. Thats my error (as you can see I'm not great speaker, so I'll fix my explanation and improve the FAQ). I agree that for doing things you need to learn a lot, but please, dont afraid if you can't finish this - thats ok. May be I need to figure (as Peter already mentioned) that much more help can receive the man, who already have some code, and stuck on some techinical thing. This is a common sense in many opensource commuties.
Also you need to know - rule # 0 - DON'T PLAY WITH COREBOOT WITHOUT WAY TO REPAIR YOUR FLASH ROM.
P.S. Sorry for my 'engrish'.
Best regards, Anton Kochkov.

Hi Peter, You wrote:
There is nearly zero correlation between the output of those tools and coreboot support. Please don't waste time on sending the output, and please try to update any and every resource that you find which requests such output, to explain the situation more intelligently.
This keeps popping up regularly. To prevent people wasting there and your time in the future maybe someone with wiki write rights (you?) could edit the "Will coreboot work on my machine?" alinea in the coreboot FAQ: http://www.coreboot.org/FAQ
