SeaBIOS can run on real hardware, but only with the aid of coreboot.

So, it's more an issue of getting coreboot running then getting
SeaBIOS running.

I'm not sure what the support of coreboot is for that particular
motherboard.  Alas, if the board is not supported then it is a huge
development undertaking to get it to work.  Best to follow up on the
coreboot mailing lists if that is your intent.
