Flashrom advised to email!

[Eamon M]

Hi,

Flashrom advised to email.

Flashing 2048k bios rom file to a Lanner FW-8750 motherboard gave the following error as attached.

Any help would be gratefully received.

Regards,
Eamon

Could you retry with flashrom from svn using the -o parameter to save
the logs, and send that file trough email ?

To get that file maybe you could use scp, or an usb key, or send it
trough the serial port if the machine has one.

Alright, this took me a (damn long) while but I now have a
pfsense-2.0.3 binary that will work.

After you have installed libpci (will install as a symlink:
/usr/local/lib/libpci.so -> /usr/local/lib/libpci.so.3) and dmidecode
(IIRC you have already done this), download and run
http://ra.openbios.org/~idwer/pfsense_package/flashrom_fbsd_8.1

You can ignore the need of gmake/subversion for now.

HTH,
