-Writing to the EEPROM
+Accessing the EEPROM
 =====================
 
-Once you have created a binary file for your EEPROM, you can write it
-to the storage medium using the fmc-write-eeprom (See *note
-fmc-write-eeprom::, while relying on a carrier driver.  The procedure
-here shown here uses the SPEC driver
-(`http://www.ohwr.org/projects/spec-sw').
-
-The example assumes no driver is already loaded (actually, I unloaded
-them by hand as everything loads automatically at boot time after you
-installed the modules), and shows kernel messages together with
-commands. Here the prompt is spusa.root# and two SPEC cards are plugged
-in the system.

-Reading back the EEPROM
-=======================
-
-In order to read back the binary content of the EEPROM of your
-mezzanine device, the bus creates a read-only sysfs file called eeprom
-for each mezzanine it knows about:
-
-   spusa.root# cd /sys/bus/fmc/devices; ls -l */eeprom
-   -r--r--r-- 1 root root 8192 Apr  9 16:53 FmcDelay1ns4cha-f001/eeprom
-   -r--r--r-- 1 root root 8192 Apr  9 17:19 fake-design-for-testing-f002/eeprom
-   -r--r--r-- 1 root root 8192 Apr  9 17:19 fake-design-for-testing-f003/eeprom
-   -r--r--r-- 1 root root 8192 Apr  9 17:19 fmc-f004/eeprom
+The bus creates a sysfs binary file called eeprom for each mezzanine it
+knows about:
+
+        spusa.root# cd /sys/bus/fmc/devices; ls -l */eeprom
+        -r--r--r-- 1 root root 8192 Feb 21 12:30 FmcAdc100m14b4cha-0800/eeprom
+        -r--r--r-- 1 root root 8192 Feb 21 12:30 FmcDelay1ns4cha-0200/eeprom
+        -r--r--r-- 1 root root 8192 Feb 21 12:30 FmcDio5cha-0400/eeprom
+
+Everybody can read the files and the superuser can also modify it, but
+the operation may on the carrier driver, if the carrier is unable to
+access the I2C bus.  For example, the spec driver can access the bus
+only with its golden gateware: after a mezzanine driver reprogrammed
+the FPGA with a custom circuit, the carrier is unable to access the
+EEPROM and returns ENOTSUPP.
+
+An alternative way to write the EEPROM is the mezzanine driver
+fmc-write-eeprom (See *note fmc-write-eeprom::), but the procedure is
+more complex.
