[flashrom] Success: Intel 82802AB on Supermicro X5DP8-G2 (chipset Intel ICH3-S/Intel E7501)

[Gerard Krol]

Just a quick note to report success in flashing my bios using flashrom.

Mainboard: Supermicro X5DP8-G2
Chipset: Intel E7501 (Intel ICH3-S)
Flash Chip (reported by flashrom): Intel 82802AB

I had to cut the rom to the correct size using
dd if=ORIGNAL.ROM of=new.rom bs=512k count=1

I did a -r and then a -w, no errors. No other options were used. The
bios complained about a wrong CMOS checksum after reboot so it loaded
default settings.

Regards,

Gerard
