LinuxBIOS Table and Mainboard Identification

If you only want to update the normal image in a ROM you can say:
- flashrom -w --layout rom.layout --image normal island_aruma.rom
+ flashrom -w --layout rom.layout --image normal agami_aruma.rom
To update normal and fallback but leave the VGA BIOS alone, say:
- flashrom -w -l rom.layout -i normal -i fallback island_aruma.rom
+ flashrom -w -l rom.layout -i normal -i fallback agami_aruma.rom
Currently overlapping sections are not supported.
ROM layouts should replace the -s and -e option since they are more
flexible and they should lead to a ROM update file format with the
