What does this mean? Also Intel has a development SDK for a development i830 board very close to this one that has a linux flash utility (pre-built binary, no source) with it. I am thinking of trying it with an ?strace? to see what it does? Would that help to find out what is going on here?
strace won't show you memory references. That's the only issue.
Dumping the ICH GPIO settings and PCI config space (once) before and (repeatedly) during a flash operation with the Intel SDK flash utility may help you solve the mystery. If you can't find any differences, you may have to resort to renouveau and revenge (reverse engineering tools of nouveau and radeon developers, respectively).
