Flashing instructions
Refer to bbb_setup.html for how to
set up the BBB for external flashing.
Here is an image of the flash chip:
Internal flashing is possible. Boot with the proprietary BIOS
and GNU/Linux. There are 2 flash chips (one is backup).
Flash the first chip:
./flashrom -p internal:dualbiosindex=0 -w libreboot.rom
Flash the second chip:
./flashrom -p internal:dualbiosindex=1 -w libreboot.rom
NOTE: You need the latest flashrom. Just get it on flashrom.org from
their SVN or Git repos.
