There's no more to say.. Noone has implemented coreboot for the board, and the significant components on the board are not otherwise supported by coreboot.
The components are very old and there exists no public documentation for them, as is needed for coreboot development. A skilled coreboot developer could possibly create support for the chipset and then for your board in 6-12 months full time, given appropriate documentation.
I'm happy that you are interested in coreboot! But coreboot success very much depends on choosing hardware according to what is already supported by coreboot, not the other way around. The exception to this is when you are an experienced PC firmware developer or equivalent, and thus can write the needed code yourself.

Well, if you put it that way, I guess there's no chance of running coreboot on this board.
Thanks for explaining it. Just a 'no' is somewhat off-putting.
