I couldn't find a datasheet after a quick search,but maybe I missed it.
Does anybody have the datasheet?

I think this is a 49LF004B (notice 8 vs. B). Can you confirm that?

This should have worked and returned id1 0xbf, id2 0x60.
Thechip ID is the same as the one of the SST 49LF004A (which is
supported by flashrom). According to the datasheet they should also
be otherwise compatible.
I guess there's some motherboard-specific fixup required before flashrom
will work. You can use Uniflash or another board which is known to work
for flashing in the mean time, I guess...
HTH, Uwe.
