Comment(by coreboot01@…):

 I got a similar problem using W39V040FBPZ.

 After starting flashrom, output stopped at "disabling checks" for a minute
 or so, then the first "Programming page" appeared and nothing more
 happened.
 Looking with strace at the process id showed that the process was doing
 nothing at all. I left the system at this state for a whole day, but still
 nothing happened.

 Then I tried again using a SST 49LF040 chip on the board (VIA PC2500e) and
 flashing worked without any problem.
