Abit AN-M2

[NotLim]

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:

http://www.abit.com.tw/page/en/motherboard/motherboard_detail.php?pMODEL_NAM...

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:

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:

Luc, I think this patch is still unmerged and does not longer apply.
Could you please regenerate it? Thanks.
