Hi, i have a problem with flashing a new blank bios chip. It´s a MX25L3206E chip.
Using clock_gettime for delay loops (clk_id: 1, resolution: 1ns). Found Macronix flash chip "MX25L3206E/MX25L3208E" (4096 kB, SPI) on linux_spi. Reading old flash chip contents... done. Erasing and writing flash chip... FAILED at 0x00000000! Expected=0xff, Found=0x00, failed byte count from 0x00000000-0x00000fff: 0xffb ERASE FAILED! Reading current flash chip contents... done. Looking for another erase function. FAILED at 0x00000000! Expected=0xff, Found=0x00, failed byte count from 0x00000000-0x0000ffff: 0xc2e5 ERASE FAILED! Reading current flash chip contents... done.

Looking for another erase function. Looking for another erase function. Looking for another erase function. No usable erase functions left. FAILED! Uh oh. Erase/write failed. Checking if anything has changed. Reading current flash chip contents... done. Apparently at least some data has changed. Your flash chip is in an unknown state. Please report this on IRC at chat.freenode.net (channel #flashrom) or mail flashrom@flashrom.org, thanks!
I started flashrom with : " sudo flashrom -n --programmer linux_spi:dev=/dev/spidev0.0,spispeed=512 --chip "MX25L3206E/MX25L3208E" -f --write /tmp/t430.rom "
I can´t skip the erase function, my thought -n and -f would help but no difference.
For any help i would be thankful.
