Have you tried selecting y at both prompts when booting? The HWID spoof has no effect otherwise.

Unfortunately the Chromebook I was using bricked itself, I'll test on another Chromebook in a few days. I think it may be due to the stateful partition being blank / empty (excl. lsb-factory)

It wasn't related to shimboot, I was trying to do something and accidentally killed the flash chip
