Hi, I send you a information for flashrom additionnal support (please)
Flashrom program detect good my mainboard and chipset but don't detect chip flash rom I have tested to force reading with "similar" model" and it work
mainboard : ASUS A7V133 chip flash memory : MOSEL V29C51002T (text writed on chip and reported by awflash utility) aparently this chip similar model as "SyncMOS S29C51002T" from your website because i can read fully with flashrom utility but i can't flash it.
documentation mainboard is here : http://dlsvr02.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/socka/kt133a/a7v133/a7v133-105.pdf
documentation chip rom is here : http://www.datasheetcatalog.org/datasheet/mosel/V29C51002T.pdf or here : http://pdf1.alldatasheet.co.kr/datasheet-pdf/view/2313/MOSEL/V29C51002T-90P/...
thank to add support of this chip , and too add option for flashrom program to force writing with a "similar chip" (know as compatible after research) when chip is manually defined.
note : project coreboot is good, but support for usb disk for boot it and keyboard/mouse usb not supported is a big lack to "switch" to this alternative open firmware :-( ...

This chip is identical to the Syncmos S29C51002T. Mosel Vitelic is the parent company of Syncmos.

The S29C51002T is supported and tested and because your chip is identical, it is supported as well.

Thanks, I just downloaded it and your chip is already supported.

Sorry, I will not do that because too many people used "force" in the past and killed their flash chips.
Please send full output of "flashrom -V" to the list so I find out why it does not work for you. Thanks.

USB disk boot support and USB keyboard support is almost complete and will be released in the next few days.
