!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Warning !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
!!! !
!!! This program should only be used on external busses unless you REALLY !
!!! know what you are doing. !
!!! !
!!! Your computer probably contains eeproms for saving data vital to its !
!!! operation. If you are not careful you might overwrite this data with !
!!! this program and your computer may no longer boot! !
!!! !
!!! An example are the EEPROMS on your SDRAM DIMMs, your computer may no !
!!! longer detect the RAM module rendering it essentially USELESS! !
!!! !
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Warning !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
eeprog reads and writes 24Cxx EEPROMs connected to I2C serial bus.
It uses the SMBus protocol used by most of the recent chipsets. Don't forget to load
your i2c chipset and the i2c-dev drivers.
Use -16 switch for EEPROM larger then 24C16 (16 bit addressing mode).
Use "make EXTRA=eeprog" to build this program.
