No luck at SPI reflash

Hi guys,

I gave the SPI emergency reflash a go. Unfortunately, not even that is
working on my board:

SPI FLASH recovery program version 2.2.
Complete instructions at http://wiki.laptop.org/go/SPI_FLASH_Recovery
Command summary:

line /dev/ttySn    \ Set the serial port to device
   If you omit this command, the default port is /dev/ttyS0

flash filename     \ Programs the FLASH from the named file
verify             \ Verifies the FLASH

Verification over the serial line is slow (17 minutes)
so you might want to skip it and let the
loaded image verify itself upon booting.

ok flash ../linuxbios-Q2A11.rom

Looks like some interference somewhere. The board should be grounded
through the serial cable and the monitor.

Ideas?
