[Help] SST39VF6401B Support

[Flávio Silveira]

Hi Yegor,

  Thanks for your response. Does this mean this chip isn't CFI compliant? 
Like, datasheet says it is, but not really.
 Sorry if I sound confused, I've never messed with flashchips before so 
names and terms are still complicated.

Regards,
  Flavio
