The following is based on work originally posted to the list by Alex  
Mauer in 2008, here: http://www.coreboot.org/pipermail/coreboot/2008-October/040212.html

I don't claim to really know what I'm doing ... but I've tested this  
on a Winnet P680 v 1.2 motherboard (in a Neoware ca22) with this flash  
chip on it.  I read the rom, erased it, read the erased image (which  
appeared to be empty via od -c), wrote the original rom back, and  
rebooted sucessfully.

Thanks,
Jim
