Hello Luis,

the output of 'sudo lspci -vvxx' and 'sudo dmidecode' would be nice to
have. With that we could look for a way to whitelist the board to be
not a laptop (as its DMI data indicates erroneously). Although I doubt
there is anything to distinguish this board from other similarly crappy
boards... :)

Apart from that I don't see any problems with the board in the log... as
long as you use the correct binary file of the firmware for the board
(and always use the -p internal:laptop=... parameter to override the
behavior discussed above), flashrom should just work with it.

Did you receive a proper binary firmware for the board from the vendor?
I am asking because you referred to the flash chip list of fpt a few
times but never to any real firmware yet.

Hello Again

I don't know if the message was received so I'll send again but this time
without the attachement.
