Good, writing to the flash chip apparently didn’t do anything.
Please check the connections (especially those to write protection pins) between
the programmer and the flash chip. If you think the error is caused by flashrom
please report this to the mailing list at [email protected] or on IRC (see
Contact for details), thanks!
