Hello. I am using your program "Flasrom". I have problem with changing of AwardBios on Coreboot. I think problem arises because "Flashrom" don't support this motherboard. But when I load in flash chip data, which were previously saved (AwardBios), "Flashrom" has success. This problem have decision? Below result of works "Flashrom".

This means we have to add special support for your board, programmer or flash chip.
