Hello Luis,
the output of 'sudo lspci -vvxx' and 'sudo dmidecode' would be nice to have. With that we could look for a way to whitelist the board to be not a laptop (as its DMI data indicates erroneously). Although I doubt there is anything to distinguish this board from other similarly crappy boards... :)
Apart from that I don't see any problems with the board in the log... as long as you use the correct binary file of the firmware for the board (and always use the -p internal:laptop=... parameter to override the behavior discussed above), flashrom should just work with it.
Did you receive a proper binary firmware for the board from the vendor? I am asking because you referred to the flash chip list of fpt a few times but never to any real firmware yet.
