flashrom 0.9.6.1+r1563-1 (amd64 binary) in ubuntu utopic
flashrom is a tool for identifying, reading, writing, verifying and erasing
flash chips. It's often used to flash BIOS/EFI/
images in-system using a supported mainboard, but it also supports flashing of
network cards (NICs), SATA controller cards, and other external devices which
can program flash chips.
.
It supports a wide range of DIP32, PLCC32, DIP8, SO8/SOIC8, TSOP32/40/48,
and BGA chips, which use various protocols such as LPC, FWH, parallel
flash, or SPI.
.
The tool can be used to flash BIOS/firmware images for example -- be it
proprietary BIOS images or coreboot (previously known as LinuxBIOS) images.
.
It can also be used to read the current existing BIOS/firmware from a
flash chip.
.
Currently supported programmers include:
.
* internal (default, for in-system flashing in the mainboard)
* dummy (virtual programmer for testing flashrom)
* nic3com (for flash ROMs on 3COM network cards)
* nicrealtek (for flash ROMs on Realtek network cards)
* nicsmc1211 (for flash ROMs on RTL8139-compatible SMC2 network cards)

* nicintel (for parallel flash ROMs on Intel 10/100Mbit network cards)
* nicintel_spi (for SPI flash ROMs on Intel Gigabit network cards)
* gfxnvidia (for flash ROMs on NVIDIA graphics cards)
* drkaiser (for flash ROMs on Dr. Kaiser PC-Waechter PCI cards)
* satasii (for flash ROMs on Silicon Image SATA/IDE controllers)
* satamv (for flash ROMs on Marvell SATA controllers)
* atahpt (for flash ROMs on Highpoint ATA/RAID controllers)
* ft2232_spi (for SPI flash ROMs attached to an FT2232/FT4232H
family based USB SPI programmer), including the DLP Design DLP-USB1232H,
FTDI FT2232H Mini-Module, FTDI FT4232H Mini-Module, openbiosprog-spi,

including AVR flasher by Urja Rannikko, AVR flasher by eightdot,
Arduino Mega flasher by fritz, InSystemFlasher by Juhana Helovuo,
and atmegaXXu2-flasher by Stefan Tauner.
* buspirate_spi (for SPI flash ROMs attached to a Bus Pirate)
* dediprog (for SPI flash ROMs attached to a Dediprog SF100)
* rayer_spi (for SPI flash ROMs attached to a RayeR parport based programmer)
* pony_spi (for SPI flash ROMs attached to a SI-Prog serial port
