[flashrom] Dump BIOS from an unsupported device

Hello everyone!

I would like to get a BIOS dump from my tablet for analysis purposes.

I read that laptops are not supported by Flashrom, so tablets should be even less so.

However I can't seem to understand if this limitation only applies to writing or reading as well.

Could anybody shed some light? Could I use the following without bricking my device? flashrom -p internal -r backup.bin

I'm ok if it crashes, just don't want to brick the tablet.

For further reference it's a BayTrail tablet with an Insyde UEFI BIOS


Many thanks in advance!
