Hi,
does anybody have a working flashrom version or could supply patches.
I always get the Erase failed message, but flashing seems to work.
Best regards,
Reiner

With coreboot installed you no longer need to modify flashrom or use
bucts. Actually the modified version of flashrom does not even work on
coreboot. That is also the reason why step 9 undoes the changes.

I think you are confusing step 2 with 10 here. Then you are right and
that was actually not mentioned in the tutorial until I added it (see
step 9) a few days ago.

This is wrong. Neither -c ... nor -f is required if you follow the guide
in the wiki (http://www.coreboot.org/Lenovo_x60x).
I agree with the rest of the mail though. One better has an external
programmer handy when doing this and so using that in the first place
might be a better option.
