My console for the serial port was already set up correctly and worked with the factory bios. I also see the nice white background with the tux in the corner.
OK, that's good.
As I already told you, the boot process hangs for a while at this point (with coreboot):

This might be an (IRQ) problem, see below.

Ditto.

And in comparison to a normal bootlog, something is different: [normal bootlog:]
Freeing unused kernel memory: 208k freed #### Thats the point where coreboot pauses ## ## And now the foolowing two lines are missing with coreboot:

That's strange, probably even misleading. The actual reason for the hang is likely in some other place. My guess is that the IRQs are messed up.
Can you try to boot the kernel with the 'irqpoll' option and see if that helps? Also, are you sure the irq_table.c in the patch is correct? I think it was generated with getpir on your 4000s? Anyway, sometimes even the tables of the proprietary BIOS are crap, so...
