Hi, obrain a similar output when trying to flash a proprietary BIOS. What I guess is that the initial address could be wrong. Here is the output:

Are you sure your board is supported by flashrom, or works without special support? See http://www.coreboot.org/Flashrom#Supported_mainboards
Also, have you tried the command multiple times (e.g. 5 times) in a row? Sometimes there are glitches and writing will not work, but on the next run it will...
