Jens sent the first patch that added A49LF040A to flash.h and flashchips.c using _jedec and _49lf040 functions. An issue was found with probe_w29ee011() for the Winbond W29EE011, which caused the A49LF040A to no longer respond to any commands. Ward made a patch to disable probing by default for the W29EE011 following some discussion. Using -c W29EE011 will make flashrom probe for the chip. Peter did some more datasheet diving and found that the Pm49FL00x functions suited this chip quite well because of the block locking registers in A49LF040A, and finally tested PROBE READ ERASE WRITE to work on ALIX.3c3. Ward confirmed that this works on alix.2c3 too.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Coreboot README ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Coreboot is a Free Software project aimed at replacing the proprietary BIOS you can find in most of today's computers. It performs just a little bit of hardware initialization and then executes one of many possible payloads, e.g. a Linux kernel. Payloads -------- After the basic initialization of the hardware has been performed, any desired "payload" can be started by coreboot. Examples include: * A Linux kernel * FILO (a simple bootloader with filesystem support) * GRUB2 (a free bootloader; support is in development) * OpenBIOS (a free IEEE1275-1994 Open Firmware implementation) * Open Firmware (a free IEEE1275-1994 Open Firmware implementation) * SmartFirmware (a free IEEE1275-1994 Open Firmware implementation) * GNUFI (a free, UEFI-compatible firmware) * Etherboot (for network booting and booting from raw IDE or FILO) * ADLO (for booting Windows 2000 or OpenBSD) * Plan 9 (a distributed operating system) * memtest86 (for testing your RAM) Supported Hardware ------------------ Coreboot supports a wide range of chipsets, devices, and mainboards. For details please consult: * http://www.coreboot.org/Supported_Motherboards * http://www.coreboot.org/Supported_Chipsets_and_Devices Website and Mailing List ------------------------ Further details on the project, a FAQ, many HOWTOs, news, development guidelines and more can be found on the coreboot website: http://www.coreboot.org You can contact us directly on the coreboot mailing list: http://www.coreboot.org/Mailinglist Copyright and License --------------------- The copyright on coreboot is owned by quite a large number of individual developers and companies.
