========================================================================<br>
WARNING! You seem to be running flashrom on a laptop.<br>
Laptops, notebooks and netbooks are difficult to support and we recommend<br>
to use the vendor flashing utility. The embedded controller (EC) in these<br>
machines often interacts badly with flashing.<br>
See http://www.flashrom.org/Laptops for details.<br>
<br>
If flash is shared with the EC, erase is guaranteed to brick your laptop<br>
and write may brick your laptop.<br>
Read and probe may irritate your EC and cause fan failure, backlight<br>
failure and sudden poweroff.<br>
You have been warned.<br>
