I had a hard drive failure which forced me to perform a fresh/clean installation of ubuntu 10 on a new drive since the old drive no longer functions (it was rather old).<div><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></div><div>My use of the b43 software is only for modification of the PCI ID's of the flashrom and the original installation was provided to me on the HD.</div><div><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></div><div>Now I am unable to write the flashrom after the new installation it always reports "write error: Operation Not Supported" and this is using the same cards I was flashing before, I even tried using a previously modified card and I get the same failure.</div><div><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></div><div>Since it worked before I can only conclude that the new software is broken and the ability to write is a requirement, can someone help me resolve this please.<br><br><div> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0px 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: auto; -khtml-text-decorations-in-effect: none; text-indent: 0px; -apple-text-size-adjust: auto; text-transform: none; orphans: 2; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; ">-- Dale<div><br class="khtml-block-placeholder"></div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"></span> </div><br></div></body></html>
