Enabling hardware sequencing because some important opcode is locked. PROBLEMS, continuing anyway ======================================================================== You may be running flashrom on an unknown laptop. We could not detect this for sure because your vendor has not set up the SMBIOS tables correctly. Some internal buses have been disabled for safety reasons. You can enforce using all buses by adding -p internal:laptop=this_is_not_a_laptop to the command line, but please read the following warning if you are not sure. Laptops, notebooks and netbooks are difficult to support and we recommend to use the vendor flashing utility. The embedded controller (EC) in these machines often interacts badly with flashing. See the manpage and https://flashrom.org/contrib_howtos/laptops_and_ec.html for details. If flash is shared with the EC, erase is guaranteed to brick your laptop and write may brick your laptop. Read and probe may irritate your EC and cause fan failure, backlight failure and sudden poweroff. You have been warned. ======================================================================== Found Winbond flash chip "W25Q128.V" (16384 kB, Programmer-specific) on internal. Reading old flash chip contents... done. Updating flash chip contents... Transaction error between offset 0x00601000 and 0x00601000 (= 0x00601000 + 0)! Erase/write done from 0 to ffffff Write Failed!Uh oh. Erase/write failed. Checking if anything has changed. Reading current flash chip contents... done. Apparently at least some data has changed. Your flash chip is in an unknown state.
