Hi. I got an error while flashing asus p4p800 motherboard on ubuntu 10.04:
$ sudo flashrom -w P4C800-ASUS-Entry-1021.005 flashrom v0.9.1-r946
this version is quite old. 0.9.3 is the current release [1]. You could even build the current version from Subversion [2].
No coreboot table found. Found chipset "Intel ICH5/ICH5R", enabling flash write... OK. This chipset supports the following protocols: Non-SPI. Calibrating delay loop... OK. Found chip "SST SST49LF004A/B" (512 KB, FWH) at physical address 0xfff80000. Flash image seems to be a legacy BIOS. Disabling checks. Writing flash chip... Erasing flash chip...

Get help on IRC at irc.freenode.net (channel #flashrom) or mail flashrom@flashrom.org!
DO NOT REBOOT OR POWEROFF!
Old bios is saved. Computer isnt rebooted. Can you help me?
I suggest to try 0.9.3 or the development version. But to be sure you should wait for an answer by a developer or ask on IRC.
Thanks,
Paul
