Flash failed on ASUS P4C-800E Deluxe
by Adrian Glaubitz 16 Dec '09

16 Dec '09

Hi, I was just trying to flash the BIOS (version 1023) into an old ASUS P4C-800E Deluxe on ArchLinux (current updates as of 13-11-2009) and the latest version of flashrom from SVN. I get the following error: [root@bart flashrom]# flashrom -w Display all 101 possibilities? (y or n) [root@bart flashrom]# flashrom w P4CED23.ROM -bash: flashrom: command not found [root@bart flashrom]# ./flashrom -w P4CED23.ROM flashrom v0.9.1-r756 No coreboot table found. Found chipset "Intel ICH5/ICH5R", enabling flash write... OK. This chipset supports the following protocols: Non-SPI. Calibrating delay loop... OK. Found chip "SST SST49LF004A/B" (512 KB, FWH) at physical address 0xfff80000. Flash image seems to be a legacy BIOS. Disabling checks. Writing flash chip... ERASE FAILED at 0x000038d0!

Get help on IRC at irc.freenode.net (channel #flashrom) or mail flashrom(a)flashrom.org! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DO NOT REBOOT OR POWEROFF! [root@bart flashrom]# Any hints? Adrian

[RFC] Add .reset to struct flashchip?
by Carl-Daniel Hailfinger 16 Dec '09

16 Dec '09

We have more than one chip which gets horribly confused by probe sequences for other chips. Sending a reset command to the detected chip (and sleeping a bit) before performing any read/write/erase action could fix a number of problems we're seeing right now. This could be achieved by adding a .reset function to struct flashchip. Thoughts?

Hi, tried flashing an ASUS A8V-E which didn't work. However, the flash rom is still intact and the machine still boots fine. Please see the attached logs of lspci -nnvvvxxx, superiotool -dV and flashrom -V plus the output for the failed flash attempt. Adrian

not supported motherboard
by Szőgyényi Gábor 15 Dec '09

15 Dec '09

Hi! I have a P4-M266 AMPTRON motherboard. It's not supported by flashrom-0.9.1. It has SST(MPF)39SF020A. The board looks like this: http://www.motherboard.cz/mb/amptron/P4-M266A.htm The wiki page says, flashrom supports PM266 - Albatron. It looks like: http://www.motherboard.cz/mb/albatron/PM266A.htm I attached the "./flashrom" output, and an "lspi -v -v" output. I hope, this helps for You. I have another motherboards, which are not supported. Thanks for Your reply, Gabor Szogyenyi --------------------------Hirdetés----------------------------- Kötelező biztosítási díjak 2010 Számolja ki és váltson kedvezőbbre!

Hello everybody! I've been unsuccessful in updating by BIOS on my ASUS A8N-SLI Deluxe motherboard using flashrom.

"fucked-bios.bin" is what I currently get if I do "flashrom -r fucked-bios.bin" "1805.BIN" is the new bios I tried to update to. Thanks for your interest reading this far! :) -- Regards, Andreas Henriksson
