[flashrom] Intel S5000PAL: Flash Not Found

[Sean Everson]

All,

I have a number of Intel S5000PAL motherboards that I would like to
use FLASHROM to manage if at all possible.  According to the Intel
Docs at:

http://download.intel.com/support/motherboards/server/s5000pal/sb/s5000pal_s5000xal_tps_r2_0.pdf

The motherboard has the 6321ESB chipset which is listed as supported
on the flashrom.org wiki page.  When I try to use FLASHROM to read the
flash I get an error message that the flash is not found.  Can someone
provide me with some guidance on what additional information or steps
I can take to investigate this further?

I have pasted the flashrom -V output here:

Thanks for your help!

--Sean
