Hello Stefan,
You are correct the attached output was performed with the A17 -> A17 write, so the flashrom skipped that write. I have missed the creating of the verbose log at the original A14-A17 update, and did not wanted to spend time with finding the different (older) BIOS contents.

Hello all,
I have successfully flashed a Dell D830 notebook (with discrete NVIDIA VGA) using flashrom from A14 BIOS revision to A17. This means two things: the notebook itself is supported, and the S25FL016A could be marked as verified for probe, read, erase, write. For the later one I have created a patch. I have forgotten to run lspci -vvvv, but I will do that and create a board enable patch soon.
Hello Márton,
thanks for your report! I have marked the flash chip as fully tested and will commit that later together with other small changes. BTW, your write log does not really show anything useful because it is not the original one. flashrom skips to erase and write blocks that contain the same data as the file to write already (denoted by the :S in the output).
