Since trac seems to be down, this message goes to the list:

Flashing parallel flash is fixed in r2955.

To be able to autodetect presence of serial flash, I'd like full
superiotool output for
* board with parallel flash
* board with serial flash
both running LinuxBIOS r2955 or later.
I hope to find a bit which differs in superio configuration that can be
used to select the right code path for enabling SPI flash (decode and
flash functionality).
