So, you've verified that the image that flashrom reads matches what you can download from the manufacturers website (extracted)?
Flashrom doesn't crash or anything here, and it might just *write* fine (not tested yet), but reading gives the wrong data. We know, because we got the ID for the chip back, that at least a couple of writes to the chip succeeded.
I used flashrom several months ago to read the vendor's BIOS. I did not actually compare it against the one posted on their web site, but I thought the contents looked plausible when I went grepping through it for strings.
I can give it another try when I get my hands on the DFI board again next week.
