Comment:
Could you please try to run superiotool again? The latest revision (r5667)
has support for your EC and should work (unless the laptop manufacturer
reconfigured the EC to listen on another address).
Besides that, flashrom (0.9.2 or later) should detect that it is running
on a laptop and abort immediately before anything bad can happen. We plan
to whitelist some laptops eventually, but for now we're going the safe
route. If flashrom does not detect your laptop as laptop, please file a
new bug at http://www.flashrom.org/trac/flashrom/newticket
I have reopened this ticket for now to keep it active until we know if
superiotool works for you.
