Hello,
I tried out flashrom on an ASUS A8N-VM CSM board: read seemed to go fine, but write failed. Information about the board: http://www.asus.com/product.aspx?P_ID=JBqqlpj4cspbSa3s
flashrom -V, lspci -nnvvxxx, superiotool -deV, flashrom -rV and flashrom -wV output is attached. The BIOS I was trying to write was the rev 1001 one available from the above ASUS page.
Per agaran's and roysjosh's friendly help on IRC I checked the BIOS I read with -r with -v and it says VERIFIED so I suppose I'll go ahead and reboot later today.
Just to follow up, reboot was fine, apparently the failed erase/write didn't end up doing any damage.
