New version, more bug fixes. Thanks for Carl-Daniel for testing!<div>- Restore the original ROM before beginning the second set of tests.</div><div>- The last iteration of the second test (un-aligned partial writes) was causing problems on a 128KB part (emulated). I&#39;ve removed it for now since I&#39;m in a hurry to get out tonight.</div>

<div>- Fixed a copy + paste error in the 4k aligned test layout.</div><div>- Added $FLASHROM_PARAM to the list of parameters passed into Flashrom.</div><div><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Tue, Oct 26, 2010 at 5:33 PM, David Hendricks <span dir="ltr">&lt;<a href="mailto:dhendrix@google.com">dhendrix@google.com</a>&gt;</span> wrote:<br>

After a few tries at manually verifying partial writes and realizing that it&#39;s awfully tedious to do any exhaustive testing, I hastily threw together a shell script to help automate the process. Since there are others on this list doing similar things, I figured it might be helpful to throw it up here.<div>
