I am not sure about chromiumos' version of flashrom, but I guess it
will behave similar to vanilla flashrom: if it can't read the flash

problems for example).

I presume because the flashrom output told him so. That's the reason
why I have created the patch to change the support mail address printed
by flashrom. I have sent a copy of the patch submission mail to you too
BTW.
