Has anyone pursued this feature of the i8xx series chipsets? Seems it could do what the Bios saviour does, even for boards with a soldered on flash chip.
Largely this requires a cooperative BIOS if you want to restore to something
besides LinuxBIOS.
I have a specific case in mind: a motherboard with a soldered in flash chip, and a 'cooperative' BIOS. I need to keep the option of restoring the vendor BIOS open until Linuxbios is working 100%.
Once you have LinuxBIOS we implement essentially the same thing in software so the benefit is minor. And by doing it in software we have it for every kind of flash chip.
Will this work for a sector erase flash? Is there any documentation I can look at?
