I think this is a 49LF004B (notice 8 vs. B). Can you confirm that?
That's correct. Should have paid more attention.
Trying SST49LF004A/B, 512 KB probe_jedec: id1 0xff, id2 0xff
This should have worked and returned id1 0xbf, id2 0x60.
Thechip ID is the same as the one of the SST 49LF004A (which is supported by flashrom). According to the datasheet they should also be otherwise compatible.
I guess there's some motherboard-specific fixup required before flashrom will work.
There must be, because flashrom also does not detect the other rom chip in the bios savior, which works fine in the tyan boards.
You can use Uniflash or another board which is known to work for flashing in the mean time, I guess...
Yes... or try to debug this to make flashrom work. How would I go about that?
Thanks, Ward.
