-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 Hi,
my Name is Johannes Merkert and I am an author for the german computer magazine c't (ct.de). I tried to install Libreboot on a ThinkPad T400 following the guide on libreboot.org (https://libreboot.org/docs/install/t400_external.html). When I tried to test flashrom with the BIOS chip I got the following error: root@beaglebone:~# ./flashrom -p linux_spi:dev=/dev/spidev1.0,spispeed=5 12 flashrom v0.9.8-unknown on Linux 3.8.13-bone79 (armv7l) flashrom is free software, get the source code at http://www.flashrom.or g Calibrating delay loop... OK. Found Generic flash chip "unknown SPI chip (RDID)" (0 kB, SPI) on linux_spi. === This flash part has status NOT WORKING for operations: PROBE READ ERASE WRITE The test status of this chip may have been updated in the latest development version of flashrom. If you are running the latest development version, please email a report to [email protected] if any of the above operations work correctly for you with this flash chip. Please include the flashrom log file for all operations you tested (see the man page for details), and mention which mainboard or programmer you tested in the subject line. Thanks for your help! No operations were specified. Does this mean my T400 uses another flash chip and I can not upgrade it to libreboot?
