I compiled and installed v.0.9.3-r1322 and still get the same "Generic unknown SPI chip (RDID)" message.
can you please paste a full verbose log i.e. the output of "flashrom -V" at http://paste.flashrom.org/ and mail us the resulting url?
In the flashchips.c file I can only locate the SST25VF010.REMS chip, should this cover my SST25VF010A?
i have to confess that i missed the 'A' in the subject, but usually A versions just replace their predecessors and are (mostly) compatible.
Does flashrom check for a Device ID (for the SST25VF010A it is 49H)?
yes, see flashchips.h: #define SST_SST25VF010_REMS 0x49 /* REMS or RES opcode */ and as the name suggests it uses the probe_spi_rems function to read that. i have not looked at the A datasheet yet... lets take a look at your log first.
