Spi flash

[Dupont Yves]

Hello,
I tried to dump my BIOS with flashrom on a SONY VAIO VGN-TX3XP.
Verbose mode was enabled :
- The southbridge is an ICH7
- it seems to be a SPI flash but the RDID command always returns 0xff.
How can I identify my flash?

thanks,

[Bao, Zheng]

Hi,
Please check what SPI chip is on your board. Check if it is defined in
the list flashchips[] in flashrom/flashchips.c.
