Hello
My pull request has already been created that had occurred *several months*
previously. I added support for ST 95XXX chips . The following chipsets
have been successfully tested for read, erase and write operations: ST [
95080, 95160, 95320, 95640, 95128, 95256 ]. I would like to discuss a new
features.
Maybe someone in the community will spent a bit of time and review my pull
request. Don't worry about the conflicting files. The part of the code has
already been merged into effect.
*I'm open-minded and ready. *

Right, looks like the Xeon D-2100 integrates a Lewisburg PCH inside.
That explains why I couldn't find that ID anywhere: there is no
publicly available datasheet for these Xeons.

Subject: Re: [flashrom] Flashrom tool failed on the Intel Bakerville platform(CPU:SKY-D)
Hello Ocean,
At the moment we do not support updating the Intel ME region. You may target other regions described by the flash descriptor using the --ifd option, for example `flashrom -p internal --ifd -i bios --noverify-all -w CBR.1.00.01.bin`.
Depending on your use case, another option is to modify the flash descriptor to allow the host to write to the ME region. However Intel recommends locking the ME region so that reads and writes to the ME region from the host are not allowed.
Please also see https://flashrom.org/ME#Suggested_workarounds for additional guidance.

Hi Vendor:
We have some issue when using flashrom tool update BIOS & ME firmware on the Intel Bakeville platform, you can refer to the below error log, could you please help give some comments or suggestions about this issue?

Hello all. It seems that I am having issues with my Arduino based flasher.
I installed Frser-duino on my Arduino UNO and tried flashing a
winbond 25x10cln1g. However I am running into errors. My log is here:
https://pastebin.com/eLJNu43T I would greatly appreciate any help.
Hello,
I'd like to flash *GD25LB64CVIG* but I cannot see that it is shown in the
list of supported chips.
Would it be possible to add support for this chip?
If not, is there any guide that can help me to manually add support for
this chip.
Best Regards,

I’m attempting to flash an MSI MS-7680 Ver. 5.1 (H61M-P25 (B3))
Here is what is shown after running flashrom:

I did successfully create a backup, but when I opened it with a hex editor, it is mostly FF.
Is the chip toast? Or is there something else I can try?

If possible I have the opportunity to use different programmer as TL866II plus, EZP2019.
I am new to Ubuntu and I am writing from Italy.
Looking forward to your reply.

Hi Team,
I am trying to test MACRONIX_MX66L1G45G (128) using flashrom.
However, I am not able to do that.
It seems like flashrom needs to configured for that. I have tried with 64MB
and 32MB chip it works fine but having issues with the 128MB ones.
Can someone please help me with this?
Best Regards
