It is designed to flash BIOS/EFI/coreboot/firmware/optionROM images on mainboards, network/graphics/storage controller cards, and various other programmer devices. - Supports more than 380 flash chips, 260 chipsets, 450 mainboards, 50 PCI devices, 12 USB devices and various parallel/serial port-based programmers. - Supports parallel, LPC, FWH and SPI flash interfaces and various chip packages (DIP32, PLCC32, DIP8, SO8/SOIC8, TSOP32, TSOP40, TSOP48, BGA and more) - No physical access needed, root access is sufficient (not needed for some programmers). - No bootable floppy disk, bootable CD-ROM or other media needed. - No keyboard or monitor needed. Simply reflash remotely via SSH. - No instant reboot needed. Reflash your chip in a running system, verify it, be happy. The new firmware will be present next time you boot. - Crossflashing and hotflashing is possible as long as the flash chips are electrically and logically compatible (same protocol). Great for recovery. - Scriptability. Reflash a whole pool of identical machines at the same time from the command line. It is recommended to check flashrom output and error codes. - Speed. flashrom is often much faster than most vendor flash tools. - Portability. Supports DOS, Linux, FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD, DragonFly BSD, Solaris, Mac OS X, and other Unix-like OSes. Partial Windows support is available (no internal programmer support at the moment, hence no "BIOS flashing"). + Supports more than 380 flash chips, 260 chipsets, 450 mainboards, 50 PCI devices, 12 USB devices and various parallel/serial port-based programmers. + Supports parallel, LPC, FWH and SPI flash interfaces and various chip packages (DIP32, PLCC32, DIP8, SO8/SOIC8, TSOP32, TSOP40, TSOP48, BGA and more) + No physical access needed, root access is sufficient (not needed for some programmers). + No bootable floppy disk, bootable CD-ROM or other media needed. + No keyboard or monitor needed.
