*if* you are talking about the acer you reported last month and *if* i
understood your question correctly, *then* you should be able to write
the flash chip with flashrom in your linux session. your previous log
confirmed at least that erasing works. writing will almost always work
if erase works. if you read out the good contents with -r, install the
bad chip, write the previously read good content with -w, the two chips
should be identical. please ask further questions if something is not
clear.
