% KCMA-D8 external flashing instructions
Initial flashing instructions for kcma-d8.
This guide is for those who want libreboot on their ASUS kcma-d8
motherboard, while they still have the proprietary ASUS BIOS present.
This guide can also be followed (adapted) if you brick you board, to
know how to recover.
**Memory initialization is still problematic, for some modules. We
recommend avoiding Kingston modules.**
For more general information about this board, refer to
[../hcl/kcma-d8.html](../hcl/kcma-d8.html).
TODO: show photos here, and other info.

preinstalled](#preinstall)
- [External programmer](#programmer)
External programmer {#programmer}
===================
Refer to [bbb\_setup.html](bbb_setup.html) for a guide on how to set up
an external SPI programmer.
The flash chip is in a PDIP 8 socket (SPI flash chip) on the
motherboard, which you take out and then re-flash with libreboot, using
the programmer. **DO NOT** remove the chip with your hands. Use a chip
extractor tool.
