unsure if coreboot could work on my machine under real conditions after flashing.
Always assume no. With the right background and some months of development the answer can become yes.
avoid making mistakes
You don't have much choice; either become a coreboot developer, or hire a coreboot developer to work for you, or give up the idea of using coreboot on your machine.
or to brick my laptop at the end.
If you want to become a developer you'll brick your laptop many times during development, so one thing you need to sort out fairly early is how you will unbrick your laptop. You will typically need to do some soldering in the machine, and you'll need a suitable flash programmer.
I hope to meet here some friendly persons who are willing to help.
coreboot folks may be friendly, but it's completely infeasible for anyone else to port coreboot to your machine for you. Adding a new system, even when components are supported like in your case, requires time-intensive work and moderately advanced electronics debugging equipment. (A 33MHz-capable programmable logic analyzer, or experience with programmable logic development in order to hack something.)
In view of the fact, that my model hasn't been supported yet by coreboot I would like to provide all needed information
You'll have to provide a patch, not just information. Nobody else can create a port for you.
thank you for your commitment concerning this great open source project
You're welcome.
ambition to use open source software. I would appreciate your support so that coreboot might natively run on my system.
I'm afraid that seems unlikely. :\
