I want to flash coreboot onto my x60s.
Note that the wiki page you refer to does *NOT* include any instructions for building coreboot itself. If you want SeaBIOS for BIOS compatibility and graphics during booting then you must make sure to build a coreboot.rom file which includes the correct VGA BIOS blob for your machine. After you've made a backup of your factory BIOS you can use bios_extract to take the backup apart, and one of the oprom files will be the correct VGA BIOS.
Is the only way to find out the chip model of my x60s by disassembling and inspecting?
Likely SST25VF016B.
what I have to then to find the information necessary to do the first part of the flashing instruction of http://www.coreboot.org/Lenovo_x60x ? What do I need to change in the patch then?
Try this patch on top of current flashrom svn: http://dpaste.com/1216583/
