flashrom on Thinkpad X301

[Joerg Albert]

Hi,

I ran flashrom on a Thinkpad X301 today with the result of the attached logfile. Just tried to get a dump of the BIOS, no writing intended.
According to the schematics the BIOS chip is connected to the ICH9 only, so I guess reading the flash won't interfere with the EC.
Any idea on how to work around the error?

Regards,
Jörg
