Currently there is an ongoing technology migration from FWH to SPI chips. For 
this reason some boards have multiple chips of different technologies 
onboard. Flashrom will probe for up to 3 chips; if more than one chip is 
detected, it will stop, and will prompt the user to choose one by the -c 
option, e.g.

[root at localhost src]# ./flashrom 
...
Warning: Multiple flash chips detected

Please fix this ambiguity by providing the
   -c | --chip <chipname>
command line option
