The following Bus Pirate link may be better:

Could you add a comment to the file which states the exact udev version
and Debian release? udev and associated rulesets change so fast that it
is unlikely the script will work as is on other machines.

Besides that, we should think about where to store this file. flashrom
source tree, wiki or somewhere else...
