Hello All,
I am trying to use flashrom to read/write my bios settings.
This is the error that I get when I try to read the BIOS:
Found chipset "Intel ICH7/ICH7R". Enabling flash write... WARNING: Setting 0xdc from 0x2 to 0x3 on ICH7/ICH7R failed. New value is 0x2. WARNING: SPI Configuration Lockdown activated. Setting BBAR to 0x00000000 failed! New value: 0x00e00000. PROBLEMS, continuing anyway Found Macronix flash chip "MX25L1605" (2048 kB, SPI) at physical address 0xffe00000. ich_spi_send_command: Internal command size error for opcode 0xab, got writecnt=4, want =1 ich_spi_send_command: Internal command size error for opcode 0xab, got writecnt=4, want =1 Reading flash... Read operation failed! FAILED.
When I read through this mail archives, I learned that SPI locked down configuration is not possible. I read through the list of supported hardware and I could see that MX25L1605 is among the list of supported hardware.
But I still not able to read my BIOS settings. Any suggestions would be appreciated
