Yes, I did. They were the same.

?? How can burn speed influence the hardware detection rate of the
installer? But ok, I tried with -speed=8 instead of
-speed=52---nothing changed: ITE controller isn't detected and the
corresponding module not offered.

Thanks for your answer!

BTW: I'd much appreciate an explanation how burn speed can influence
the hardware detection of the installer.

Best wishes
