    Summary: Universal flash programming utility
    Description: 
    flashrom is a tool for identifying, reading, writing,
    verifying and erasing flash chips. It's often used to flash
    BIOS/EFI/coreboot/firmware/optionROM 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.
