You're likely best off flashing back to vendor BIOS and/or replacing the 
BIOS flash chip (eeprom) by another one containing the motherboard 
manufacturer's BIOS.
Alternatively a 2nd machine might help in performing a so-called hotswap.

I've got no usage experience with CoreBoot (only reading their 
mailinglist archives), don't know if your board is supported at all (and 
if not, hopefully you've got a BIOS backup chip), and you're likely best 
off asking the Coreboot mailing list.

Flashrom can often write Coreboot firmware, but also motherboard vendor 
firmware (bios/uefi). That might be one of the reasons that it's not 
that related/integrated to the Coreboot project anymore as it once was.

Goodluck unbricking your BIOS. Some experimenting inside of QEMU might 
work, pity there's no ready-to-run 'coreboot-linux' harddisk image file 
(or virtual machine) available for download, to run directly under QEMU.
