Hi Julio,
please note that the method in the link can destroy your mainboard if your flash chip uses a different interface (very likely). See below for details.

IIRC, we recently had a link showing two stacked flash chips (but I think they were parallel, not LPC/FWH) with some control signals only connected to the top one - the idea was to mount a working flash chip on top of the one with damaged/wrong contents without removing the lower one from the system. Anyone knows what I'm talking about and still has the link?

The back-to-back socket solution (sometimes also marketed as top hat flash) would be the one which does not require soldering on the board and thus has a lower risk.
The best way to figure this out is to find out which flash chip you have and tell us. Then we can try to find out which pins need to be bent and disconnected.
