@Suiseiseki@freesoftwareextremist.com @icedquinn@blob.cat @bonifartius@qoto.org @sally@freesoftwareextremist.com I've never had internal "flashrom" programming fail myself, as I make sure to always run the right command and flash the right image.That is true because the images are tested extensively. However, there are also many "untested" images on the GNU Boot status page which may need an external flasher to recover if you want to be the first person to test them.

And yes, if you've done it once it is trivial to do it again. But I'm speaking from the perspective of a less technical RYF certified computer buyer.

People who buy a RYF certified machine from one of the FSF endorsed vendors with everything preinstalled may not have the knowledge and hardware required to make their system working again, but then again maybe those people won't be playing with flashrom in the first place.
