Hi there... i had a problem, upgrading my motherboard bios... i was on #flashrom ... and some guy/girl named "carldani" told me:
<carldani> can you mail the output of "flashrom -V", "lspci -nnvvvxxx", "superiotool -d" (allcommands as root), the exact name of your board (including revision, if there are multiple revisions), and a link to the official BIOS download <carldani> and please write in the mail that you need a board enable, and that it is Phoenix BIOS.
Well:
I need a board enable. My motherboard is an Abit AN-M2. Official links for bioses is here:

I was trying to upgrade from 07/16/2007 (BIOS ID:13) to (today) latest version: 01/03/2008 (BIOS ID:19).
I've attached "flashrom -V" as flashromV.txt, "lspci -nnvvvxxx" as lspcinnvvvxxx.txt, "superiotool -d" as superio.txt. And also a dmidecode and current error as "failed.txt" (You can see here too: http://pastebin.com/f7056e678 )
Thanks a lot! and... it is Phoenix BIOS!
No, it's an award, which always makes libv a happy camper :)
Give the attached patch a whirl. Raises what i think is GPIO2 on the MCP SMBus.
If it works, please reply with:
