Not safe at all. Flashrom may well work if the boards do not require 
board specific enables but coreboot requires a specific port to each 
motherboard in question. So you are very likely to end up with a 
motherboard that will not boot.
If you want to do the coreboot ports then the coreboot mailing list will 
be the place to get the help you need.
