Indeed; I've never soldered/desoldered anything in my life. I thought that Flashrom was used to get Coreboot onto the board. I clearly misunderstand the purpose of Flashrom if physical modification is also needed. If that's specific to the M2A-VM perhaps I should look for a different Micro ATX board with which I can use Flashrom. Suggestions?
