Ah, when trying the same binary on an official fedora 13 live usb key it works.
So it's something specific to my system. Feel free to ignore this unless
you know off the top of your head what the issue might be on my read-only
root, custom F12 distro.

The differences are summarised below:

Broken...

flashrom v0.9.2-r1182 on Linux 2.6.32.10-90.fc12.i686 (i686)
Probing for Winbond W25x80, 1024 KB: Error accessing flash chip,
0x100000 bytes at 0xfff00000
/dev/mem mmap failed: Value too large for defined data type

Working...

flashrom v0.9.2-r1182 on Linux 2.6.33.3-85.fc13.i686 (i686)
Probing for Winbond W25x80, 1024 KB: probe_spi_rdid_generic: id1 0xef, id2 0x3014
Chip status register is 00
Found chip "Winbond W25x80" (1024 KB, SPI) at physical address 0xfff00000.

cheers,
