Hello Nico,

Thank you very much for your information.

Does the image of SPI chip which i get with -r key contain BIOS firmware or BIOS settings or both?

My goal is to create BIOS master image which i can write to 10,20,100 devices with same hardware.

Regards,

Vladimir

yes, because your BIOS claims that it's a laptop: `DMI string
chassis-type: "Notebook"`.

flashrom -p internal:laptop=force_I_want_a_brick show more info. Logs with
different V number are attached.
Please could you please tell me if i can use flashrom in my case?

You already did. If you let it probe with the above force option,
it can already harm some laptops. But in your case (SPI chip directly
attached) it's safe. You can go ahead (if you have a valid image to
flash). In either case of success of failure, please always keep
logs (best use the -o option) and report back.

Please note that your message got filtered from the mailing list (there
is a 256KiB limit for the mail size). So I'll attach your least verbose
log for reference.

Nico
