Interesting.  Any suggestions on where I should poke around to help
debug this?

As an aside, I found a Winbond w49f002u chip and decided to back up the
original EPIA BIOS to it.  I had to remove the print statements from the
flash_and_burn w49f002u driver, turn off the chip erase, and program it
repeatedly before it verified correctly!  Apparently that chip is very
timing sensitive!  Aside from that issue, the Winbond chip works fine
on the EPIA.

Thanks,

Jeff
