And here the instructions for swiftgeek:

Please download current svn and apply the patch in the Mail I responded
to. As your board does not have enough unique properties to be
autodetectable by flashrom, you need to specify "-m msi:ms6787" on the
flashrom command line to tell flashrom the type of your board. If
flashing works, please tell us (preferably on the list).

Regards,
  Michael Karcher

Committed in r1155 but marked untested as there was no feedback from
swiftgeek yet. Do we have an email address to contact the user?

Uwe.

Oops, sorry, I somehow missed the initial email which was indeed sent
out by Swift Geek , so yes, we do have the address :)

Could you please try the latest flashrom svn version and report if it
works?

./flashrom -m msi:ms6787 -p internal:boardenable=force -V -w foobar.bin

(where foobar.bin is the BIOS image you want to write)

Thanks, Uwe.
