Since we don't want our images to be tampered with, we want to enable write-protection for the full range. Since we don't want our images to be tampered with, we want to enable write-protection for the full range.
We can configure the write-protected range as follows: We can configure the write-protected range as follows:
\begin{minted}[breaklines]{text} \begin{minted}[breaklines]{text}
./flashrom --programmer=buspirate_spi:spispeed=2M,dev=/dev/buspirate --wp-range 0x000000 0x800000 ./flashrom --programmer=buspirate_spi:spispeed=2M,dev=/dev/buspirate --wp-range 0x000000 0x1000000

After setting the range, we are still able to modify the contents of the entire SPI NOR flash chip. After setting the range, we are still able to modify the contents of the entire SPI NOR flash chip.
