Hi,
I have an IBM ThinkPad T60 laptop(1951-CTO) which uses BIOS(version 2.27) from Phoenix Technologies. I would like to replace this with Coreboot and use SeaBIOS as a payload as I need to change the order of boot devices from time to time. I do not need SeaBIOS for BIOS callback functions as I use only Linux-based opeating systems on this machine. Based on the instructions in Coreboot wiki, I downloaded the flashrom source(r1711 according to ChangeLog file) and looked for the definition of my flash chip in flashrom's flashchips.c file. My flash chip is Macronix MX25L1605AM2C. What is the correct definition of my flash chip in flashchips.c file? As one can see, there are three ones which seem to match:
root@T60:~/flashrom-0.9.7# grep name flashchips.c | grep MX25L1605 .name = "MX25L1605", .name = "MX25L1605A/MX25L1606E", .name = "MX25L1605D/MX25L1608D", root@T60:~/flashrom-0.9.7#
In addition, I tried to find the datasheet for MX25L1605AM2C to look up the ID bytes the flash replies to the RES ID command and RES model ID, but I wasn't able to find the exact data sheet. Or could I use the datasheet of MX25L1605A(https://db.tt/oe6Cgm8K)?
regards, Martin
