New mainboard - Shuttle AB61

Hello!

I've tested flashrom v0.9.7-r1832 with this mainboard.

The factory BIOS image had this: DMI string chassis-type: "Unknown".
When I tried flashrom with the factory image applied to the flash chip, I
needed to specify this line 'internal:laptop=this_is_not_a_laptop'

When I updated the BIOS for this mainboard to the latest version with
flashrom, the BIOS image now have this instead:
DMI string chassis-type: "Desktop".

This means that the latest BIOS image doesn't require any extra
information (internal:laptop=this_is_not_a_laptop) specified with
flashrom.


This mainboard works fine.

Original flash chip on this mainboard: SST SST39SF020A

I've attached several logs in this e-mail.

Hello Olof,

thanks for your report!
I have added your board to our list of supported hardware and will
commit that later together with other small changes.
