Good, writing to the flash chip apparently didn't do anything.
This means we have to add special support for your board, programmer or flash
chip. Please report this on IRC at chat.freenode.net (channel #flashrom) or
mail flashrom@flashrom.org, thanks!

You may now reboot or simply leave the machine running.

@tizbac how did you get the ch341a to work? I'm trying without the 3.3>1.8v stepdown, but nothing seems to work. I get,
