<P> </P>
<P>Is the SST49lf04 an "A" or "B"?<BR>[Viswesh] Actually I have both.When I tried with SST49LF004B, the above error is seen.</P>
<P> </P>
<P>When I later tried with 4A, it was able to detect it, but the erasing failed as I suppose the Write Lock has been enabled.The read was successful.</P>
<P><BR>Is this the flash device that came with the mainboard?</P>
<P> </P>
<P>[Viswesh] No, These are new ones which we are trying on the iwill board.<BR><BR>If not, what flash device did the board come with from the factory?</P>
<P> </P>
<P>[Viswesh] Need to remove the label and check,not sure right now.<BR><BR>Are you running flashrom with the factory BIOS?</P>
<P> </P>
<P>[Viswesh]No.The board came up with the factory bios and then we removed it and then put our new SST flash and trying out.<BR><BR>I'm trying to get some feedback here to see about adding some debug <BR>and/or flash enables to flashrom and debug ideas to the flashrom wiki.<BR></P>
