This e-mail is basically a re-submittal with different subject.
I am currently working with an Intel based controller that is not supported by FLASHROM. The controller was purchased with AMI BIOS which configures the South Bridge BIOS_CNTL register to only allow SMI code to update the BIOS.
I have attached log files from the following:
flashrom -V > flashrom.log "FlashRom was extracted from svn on 4/19/2011 and built with no changes." lspci -nnvvxxx > lspci.log superiotool -deV > superiotool.log
biosdecode > biosdecode.log hwinfo --bios > hwinfo-bios.log dmidecode --type bios > dmidecode-bios.log lshw > lshw.log
The controller (CR11) is manufactured by GE and uses the following chipset:
Do you have a contact at GE, that can help you with this controller ?
Intel Celeron Processor Intel E7520 North Bridge Intel 6300ESB South Bridge SST49LF008A Firmware Hub
With minor tweaks to flashrom, it was able to see the following:
Found chip "SST SST49LF008A" (1024 KB, FWH) at physical address 0xfff00000
Can we have a look at your modification/patch, if you are (legally) allowed to disclose your work ?
The FWH ID was found at 0xfffc0000 and 0xfffc0001.
Any help will be greatly appreciated. We are in need of a reflash utility other than the one supplied by AMI .
Thanks,
