I suspect I just bricked my notebook. I tried to flash it with a BIOS image I exchanged some device IDs in. It failed with the subject error and I tried to flash again with the backup, which failed in the same manner (needless to say I dare not reboot at the moment).
We already discussed this issue in the IRC channel. The system is write-protected and/or the Intel SPI driver failed, so nothing at all happened. As flashrom checks for successfull erase before trying to write the backup, even writing the backup failed, as erasing was not successfull in the first place.
