Flashrom should also have told you if you are safe or not (to reboot). So I presume you did not include everything flashrom printed. Nevertheless it looks like flashrom modified the content of the flash memory and that makes it potentially unsafe to reboot. To recover I would first try to write the backup you read before with flashrom -r ... you did make a backup, didnt you? Please send us the complete log file created, e.g. "recovery.log" when running flashrom -p internal -o recovery.log -w "backup.img" -- Kind regards/Mit freundlichen Grüßen, Stefan Tauner _______________________________________________ flashrom mailing list [email protected] http://www.flashrom.org/mailman/listinfo/flashrom
