Hi,

 

I am trying to use flashrom and a TinCanTools flyswatter2 to program the Winbond W25Q32 flash via SPI.  After researching how to use flashrom and the flyswatter, I tried the following:

 

robert@STS-MAX:~/Downloads/MB_UEFI_Firmware_v1.00$ sudo flashrom --programmer internal --write MINNOW.fd

[sudo] password for robert:

flashrom v0.9.6.1-r1563 on Linux 3.13.0-39-generic (x86_64)

flashrom is free software, get the source code at http://www.flashrom.org

 

Calibrating delay loop... OK.

Found chipset "Intel H67". Enabling flash write... FREG0: WARNING: Flash Descriptor region (0x00000000-0x00000fff) is read-only.

FREG2: WARNING: Management Engine region (0x00003000-0x001fffff) is locked.

Please send a verbose log to flashrom@flashrom.org if this board is not listed on

http://flashrom.org/Supported_hardware#Supported_mainboards yet.

Writes have been disabled. You can enforce write support with the

ich_spi_force programmer option, but it will most likely harm your hardware!

If you force flashrom you will get no support if something breaks.

OK.

Found Winbond flash chip "W25Q32" (4096 kB, SPI) at physical address 0xffc00000.

Write/erase is not working yet on your programmer in its current configuration.

Aborting.

 

So apparently it does find the W25Q32 chip, and I may be getting close.

 

Before I proceed to possible destruction, does anyone have suggestions?

 

Thanks

 

Robert
