[flashrom] can you help me to get the flashrom windows snapshots

[David G ZHAO]

Dear Stefan,

I  understand you are very busy. The flashrom software is wonderful for 
helping people like me to try to flash a bios chip or efi chip.

In the last few days I was trying to read a chip Macronix MX25L6473E. I 
managed getting the v0.9.8 working in a linux machine, but somehow the 
buspirate or the flashrom said "No eeprom found", I have tried a lots of 
ways, not successful.

However if I use my windows computer which has flashrom  v0.9.6.1, the 
flashrom said "found Generic chip (unknown SPI chip)."  So I assume the 
wiring of the chip to the buspirate is ok.

I suppose that I will need the v0.9.8 for windows version to read this 
chip. however the link Snapshots on 
http://ra.openbios.org/~idwer/flashrom/mingw does not work anymore.

Can you please email me a windows version snapshot for the v0.9.8? Or is 
there any link I can get a windows version v0.9.8?

Any help will be much appreciated.

Thank you very much

Kind Regards
David from Sydney
