[StarBook MK VI - Intel - AMI] switch-branch: image write failed, err=2

[drainboy]

Since coreboot has been updated quite a bit (since i last had it), I wanted to try switching back to it but I kept getting this error

That's an old fwupd bug - you need a newer version

[drainboy]

I have installed the following packages

Packages (2) flashrom-starlabs-1.3.0rc2-4 fwupd-starlabs-1.8.10-4

are these the latest versions?

[Sean-StarLabs]

Is that Manjaro? If so, replace fwupd-starlabs with fwupd

[drainboy]

Yes i'm using Manjaro. I installed fwupd but i'm still experiencing the same error

Here's the logs when I used the fwupdmgr --version command

What does sudo flashrom -p internal -r foo.bar -i bios --ifd -N show?

[drainboy]

flashrom unknown on Linux 6.1.12-1-MANJARO (x86_64)
flashrom is free software, get the source code at https://flashrom.org

Okay, might be kermel - can you let me know the version you're using? And are you able to try an older one?

[drainboy]

I'm using Manjaro 6.1.12-1 and I have tried fwupdmgr switch-branch on the following kernel versions:

• 6.2.0 - 1
• 6.0.19 - 4
• 5.15.94 - 1
