Just adding the right values to flashchips.c is not enough. I need "flashrom -V" output both with your patch and without your patch. > It would be really fine, if someone of you could implement that correctly, i > can and will test if it works. > I can implement support if I have the output mentioned above. Your problem seems to be caused by the flash translation chip and not the flash chip.
