It will be very difficult to run coreboot on your machine, but we can
fix flashrom to work.

That's a good result. We now know you have a SST 39VF040 flash chip, but
it is not supported yet. I have sent a patch to change this a few
minutes ago. It will be committed soon and then it would be nice if you
could retest flashrom.
