Hello
I have a acer aspire 5315 and here is verbose log and extra info
Reagards.
extra info from bios release notes : KBC ................ ENE926 Super I/O ................ NONE BIOS ROM Part ................ MX25LV008BB
there is no such flash chip known to us (or google, except for other pastes of similar release notes :) anyway i guess the flash chip is behind the ENE controller (you can verify that by searching for a schematic of that mainboard) and you need support for that which does not exist and wont exist in the near future, sorry.
verbose log
that log made a minor cosmetic bug visible (see below) which i fixed locally already, thanks!

You may be running flashrom on an unsupported laptop. We could not detect this for sure because your vendor has not setup the SMBIOS tables correctly. You can enforce execution by adding '-p internal:laptop=this_is_not_a_laptop' to the command line, but please read the following warning if you are not sure.
Laptops, notebooks and netbooks are difficult to support and we recommend to use the vendor flashing utility. The embedded controller (EC) in these machines often interacts badly with flashing. See http://www.flashrom.org/Laptops for details.
If flash is shared with the EC, erase is guaranteed to brick your laptop and write may brick your laptop. Read and probe may irritate your EC and cause fan failure, backlight failure and sudden poweroff. You have been warned. ======================================================================== Proceeding anyway because user forced us to. Found chipset "Intel ICH8M" with PCI ID 8086:2815.

those PR outpus shouldnt be printed if the board is not in descriptor mode.
