Thanks a lot for the help, but now I don't even get to the black screen. Whenever I flash coreboot and reboot the computer, after a few seconds of black-screen the backup BIOS complains about a checksum fail from the main bios chip and resets the contents to the original BIOS. I have a few ideas to try tonight, so I'll try that. Hopefully I'll be able to achieve something.
