you can'd ID flash without write cycles working.
How do I find out whether it happened and how can I fix it if it didn't?
They don't work. You read back ff all the time.
Attached is the output of ./flashrom -V. It's the same for both the AM2* and W49* chips. I had no luck with flash_rom from V1, either. The output of that is attached, too.
I assume it doesnt even try to enable write cycles. This should be warned in flashrom with an appropriate message to fix it.
ie on Epia it would say: Enabling flash write on VT8235...OK
Can you send around an lspci -n ?
