Automagically doing the wrong thing is probally not good. I would say
that the current behavior is good just not verbose enough.
If it does not find an lbtable then it should say so and exit with a
example of the right option(s) to use for -m or -f to disable checks.
Something like:
"Your flash image does not appear to correct for the mainboard I have
detected." If you are sure this is a correct image for this mainboard
then you can override this check with:
-m <mfg:model>
or -f to disable this check completely.
And then fill in mfg and model with the autodetected values.
