patch to enable Eon EN29F040A
by Jim Rowan 09 Apr '14

09 Apr '14

The following is based on work originally posted to the list by Alex Mauer in 2008, here: http://www.coreboot.org/pipermail/coreboot/2008-October/040212.html I don't claim to really know what I'm doing ... but I've tested this on a Winnet P680 v 1.2 motherboard (in a Neoware ca22) with this flash chip on it. I read the rom, erased it, read the erased image (which appeared to be empty via od -c), wrote the original rom back, and rebooted sucessfully.

by Marcus Pollice 06 Apr '14

Hi, I just tried to use the latest SVN Flashrom on an ASRock FM2A88X Extreme6+ motherboard and got a message that some values didn't match known values. I attached both the log from Flashrom as well as the requested lspci output. If you need any further information, feel free to ask. Best regards, -- Marcus Pollice

Re: [flashrom] Intel S5000PAL: Flash Not Found
by Sean Everson 04 Apr '14

04 Apr '14

All, After further investigation we have found that we have 2 different S5000 family motherboards. The S5000PHB and the S5000PAL. The S5000PHB uses: National Semiconductor SuperIO: PC87427. Full info is: NT633G - NSC2003 A3 - PC87427 - IBU/VLA Intel JS28F320 flash part. Full info is JS28F320-C3BD70-A6247488 The S5000PAL uses a Winbond SuperIO: 87427F5-C/L1 A4. (I am still working with my IT folk to locate the flash part on this board). The flashrom -V output in my previous message was from an S5000pal board. It appears that flashrom is not able to identity this chip. Please let me know if there is additional info I can provide that would help. Also, if someone could provide guidance as to what work needs to be done to get flashrom working with this chip I would be glad to do the legwork. (Or at least as much of it as I can.) Thanks for your help! --Sean

iscsi issue
by Tsukasa Mcp_Reznor 02 Apr '14

02 Apr '14

okay, no rush, ipxe builds fine (used it a ton, have a good iscsi net). I'm converting to 2 separate networks, so I'm skipping the pxe with chaining configs, I have a few intel 1000 gt cards, with the intel util it won't use .rom files, so I used flashrom, no issues there, the issue is on boot, my normal script sets the ip/netmask/gateway and does sanboot iscsi:blah::::target:diskname. but with the flashed rom (with embedded script) the first time flashing, I got a blue rectangle on the bottom left, with a smaller white rectangle to the right of it, and it didn't load the disk, my 2nd try, I get nothing after it shows ipxe and the version and clears the screen, so I used the control B method, using the same script typed out, it won't connect, until I filled out the initiator-iqn and I also had to issues ifopen then I get that it attached to 0x80, and booting 0x80, but it doesn't go any farther and actually bootany pointers on what might be wrong? I did pad the .rom using dd, verified the size, if the pci ID helps its 8086107cI believe the romchip was a w25x10, 128Kb, I used the nicintel_sbi programmernot sure how much more clear I can be on my own, so if you have any questions I'll idle away :) Thanks for your time and for making flashrom, it's a great utility that I'm going to be using alot over the next few weeks

How To Determine Chip Name In The Case Of Multiple Flash Chip Definitions Matched
by Andrew Ngo 02 Apr '14

02 Apr '14

Hello, the flashrom Community, I am trying to flash my server with "flashrom". Motherboard is X8DA3 made by Supermicro. The command I used is: "flashrom -w myFileName -p internal". Following are the errors: Found Macronix flash chip "MX25L3205(A)" (4096KB, SPI) at physical address 0xffc00000 Found Macronix flash chip "MX25L3205D/MX25L3208D" (4096KB, SPI) at physical address 0xffc00000 Found Macronix flash chip "MX25L3206E" (4096KB, SPI) at physical address 0xffc00000 Multiple flash chip definitions match the detected chip(s): "MX25L3205(A)", "MX25L3205D/MX25L3208D", "MX25L3206E" Please specify which chip definition to use with the -c <chipname" option I also noticed that there is another flash chip related to the 32MB Macronix flash chip on the support list, namely the MX25L3235D. However, the array in the flashrom program only allocates array size of 3 and thus this chip name is not printed out. Question: 1. Are all these chip name the same? 2. If they are not the same, which chipname should I use with the "-c" option? 3. Is there a way to automatically determine this chipname by c or python? (My flashing application is written in python). Thanks... Andy Ngo andrew.h.ngo(a)leidos.com andyhngo(a)hotmail.com
