This errors are normal. Ignore them.

Well this sequence just reprograms the chip. After that you should be able to
modprobe the module, and sensors-detect should find it active.

(unless I made some mistake)

Can you re-run the sequence, and run this:
isaset -y -f 0x2e 0x87
isaset -y -f 0x2e 0x87
isaset -y 0x2e 0x2f 0x07 0xb
isadump -y 0x2e 0x2f
isaset -y -f 0x2e 0xaa

Thanks,
