I also had a problem when installing the patch for the first time on both my 2009 iMac and a buddy's iMac 2010, where it would also not boot up after installing Mojave Patch. The 2009 keyboard used to do key commands just fine on the 2009 iMac but stopped working after installing the Mojave Patch.
MAKE F KEYS WORK MAC OS 10.14 UPGRADE
Then after trying to upgrade to 10.4.4 Mojave Patch I could not get the machine to boot from any drive, internal or external.<< I just ignored it since it's very rare you need those key commands and I ran it for 3/4 of a year. It's the original Apple keyboard from the 2009 iMac that used to work but stopped working after installing Mojave Patch. I know sometimes it's the weird kinks that makes something work, and I'm very open to any idea that might fix my broken iMac however the 2012 keyboard and mouse was wireless and is currently for sale. I'm hoping we'll get to 10.15 in the fall, but I'm not optimistic.
With a single processor, the only flash to avoid is 142 which was never a final. I'm assuming there will be a BootRom flash to 144 as well. There is evidently one more OS upgrade 14.5 that should also be doable. His System Report which showed he had a 6-core single processor and was at 144 with the 14.5 beta, or whatever the trials for the point upgrades are called. One regular contributor caught me spreading rumors about the bricking updates, since those versions never made it to finals status. I discovered on this forum, in a different spot, most of the skinny on the single processor units bricking. I am about to do the same thing to my 4-core.

The hard part was the waiting for the download just after I put the slightly older version in the trash. I actually let it reinstall the 14.4 software, and when I cloned it, it was obvious that there were differences in the versions. Then it asks you if you want to continue with the installation to 14.4. You don't even need an EFI flashed video card. It tells you it will shut down, and you have to start it in the special way described. As soon as I did that, I got the screen announcing the bootROM flash before the upgrade ever gets started. Make sure it's that big or you have the mini installer that won't work. I solverd the problem by downloading the very latest 6GB installer. Your post is pretty cryptic, but I think I had the same problem with getting to 14.4 but without the bootROM update. Unfortunately, the system didn't (or couldn't) record the KP, neither on disk nor even in the NVRAM. This shutdown ended in a KP, and like last time (post #14878) the system got barely usable after that. I am pretty sure it happened when trying to switch from 9400 back to 9600 (sys settings, logout/in, shutdown). Importantly however, the file system got hurt during one of the many KPs! I'll continue testing 10.14.5 soon on the external disk. Nothing lost of course! Not even time, because testing is the purpose.
The internal disk with the broken file system I've erased, and now cloning the external disk to it (CCC). I'm back to 10.14.3 for now on both disks. So with an MBP5,2, 17", 2.8GHz, running 10.14.5bx, switching between GPUs can hurt the file system, and did twice in my case. Screenshot attached (disk utility run when booted from a different disk). This time, fsck found an error with an xattr_key, and it couldn't repair it. This shutdown ended in a KP, and like last time (edit: post #14760) the system got barely usable after that. Importantly however, the file system got hurt during one of the many KPs. Is the gMUX itself storing it, and also gets reset with NVRAM reset?) (BTW I see no parameter in the NVRAM with nvram -p that would indicate a GPU selection. Resetting NVRAM cured it for a while but it came back. Regarding the different boot screen in 9400M mode, I had that from 10.14.4 onwards. 10.14.3 is running without problems: Safari fine, GPU switching fine. However these observations rather speak against this assumption: The disks are Samsung SSDs 500GB, 860 EVO and 840 EVO, resp. At post-install, I accept all proposed patches except APFS. Dosdude’s APFS ROM patch is applied to the EEPROM.
