FAILED: UPN-ADLN97-A10

[Stefan Kent]

Hello,

I tried to flash an Intel board using flashrom and it seems to have 
failed. The image was supplied by the manufacturer.

The manufacturer page for the board is here: 
https://www.aaeon.com/en/p/up-board-up-squared-pro-7000

I took a backup of the factory image before I started but flashrom fails 
to restore the default image with the same error.

Are you able to assist in getting the default flash restored so I can 
once again reboot this board?

I've attached a copy of the verbose log for a failed flash.

Is the chip write-protected [--wp-status] and if so, is the WP pin asserted?

If you are saying the board is now bricked you will need to use an external
programmer unfortunately, however fortunately it means there are less
constraints on the ability to access all of the SPI flash address space
than via `-p internal`.

Interesting board btw, perhaps you may wish to send a patch to
`known_boards.c` to help others avoid accidentally bricking the board?

Hope this helps!
