I need to know a few things before I can proceed with the EFI flash.

I need to know what wires do I need? Just the 8 that comes with the Pomona clip or do I need to purchase additional wires?
Do I need anything extra to connect the wires to the Raspberry Pi and to the clip?
What do I need to connect the Pi to my workstation and how do I do it?
How would I know which wires to connect where?
How do I install Flashrom in OS X/Windows?

It's a MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid-2014) 2.5 GHz i7 A1398 (EMC 2881) with EFI chip model: MX25L6406E

Here is the link to my chips datasheet for anyone that can help me wire these things properly: www.netcheif.com/Reviews/DIR-825AC/PDF/MX25L6406E.pdf

Also I really need help on how to run the process on Mac. I have Windows 7 installed as well but I do prefer OS X. Does anyone know the commands in OS X's Terminal?

I've found the diagram on which colored wires go where on the clip. Thanks. I have attached the diagram.

Can I connect the Pi to my workstation with a male-to-male USB cord? The Pi I bought came with an HDMI cord.

What are resistors, what do they do and do I need them? And last but not least I'd need the commands written for Terminal in OS X or Command Prompt in Windows 7.

I run everything through the PI so I don't know about connecting it to a windows box via a usb cable.

If I helped you buy me a latte!

It isn't a Windows box, its installed via a partition on my Mac. I know Ghost can help me if he sees this thread!

You need to connect the pi to your network, and obviously make sure you connect a monitor and peripherals to set that up. and you need to either use the peripherals or set up SSH connection and SSH into the pi from another machine.
