Hello all,
I have successfully flashed a N25Q128..1E SPI flash using flashrom with a 16MB image. The programmer was an external one: NI USB-8452. This is not supported in the mainline yet, but patch is coming soon.

Hello Márton,
thanks for your report! I have marked the flash chip as fully tested and will commit that later together with other small changes. The reason why I don't apply your patch as is is twofold: 1) it contained the wrong white space in the changed line (spaces instead of tabs), 2) it is not worth the effort and would create an unusual small commit anyway without good reason. Of course I will mention you in the commit log however. I am looking forward to your programmer patch as well! Let us know if you need any assistance.
