Hello everybody!
I've been unsuccessful in updating by BIOS on my ASUS A8N-SLI Deluxe motherboard using flashrom. To my novice eyes it looks like the first 768kB has been erased and the rest left as is....
I'll put some information below....
Although i think that this will be more a flashchip issue than anything else, please give this patch a whirl.

Hi, this patch was comitted as r949. We currently mark the board-enable as untested. Andreas, can you please try if the latest flashrom version from svn trunk detects your board correctly and (more importantly) if writing/erasing the chip in that board works OK?
Also, which board exactly do you have, the "ASUS A8N-SLI Deluxe" or "ASUS A8N"? If the first, we need to fix the name in our code.
The A8N seems to be a laptop also, see: http://www.asus.com/product.aspx?P_ID=piUw2tNdosMjBF36
Please post the following output if possible:
* flashrom -V * lspci -nnvvvxxx (as root) * superiotool -deV
If you can recover please also post the output of a write or erase operation (using the latest flashrom from svn).
Thanks, Uwe.
