Hi,
The mp30ar0 U-boot has some special memory mapping to accommodate 32-bit DMA. Please download the tar ball again - I've updated the tianocore UHP for this.

Updated instruction for U-boot chain loading: MP30AR0# setenv num_cores 1 MP30AR0# setenv DDRBASE2G 1 MP30AR0# save; reset
MP30AR0# setenv load_tianocore 'tftp 0x82000000 ${user_dir}/mp30ar0_tianocore_ubt.fd; tftp 0x1d000000 ${user_dir}/mp30ar0_tianocore_sec_ubt.fd' MP30AR0# setenv run_tianocore 'go 0x1d000000' MP30AR0# run load_tianocore run_tianocore
OK, I got this far now, with some minor changes (loading Tianocore off USB until I can complete the install and put the files on the UEFI FAT disk partition. My modified incantations are:
MP30AR0# setenv num_cores 1 MP30AR0# setenv DDRBASE2G 1
MP30AR0# setenv load_tianocore ' fatload usb 0:1 0x82000000 mp30ar0_tianocore_ubt.fd; fatload usb 0:1 0x1d000000 mp30ar0_tianocore_sec_ubt.fd;'
MP30AR0# setenv run_tianocore 'go 0x1d000000' MP30AR0# save; reset
then after it reboots:
MP30AR0# usb reset MP30AR0# run load_tianocore run_tianocore

(Note: Boot stops there for long enough to be concerning. Give it a minute and it will eventually get further.)
Eventually that will get you to the bit blow as Phong mentioned previously:
Welcome banner should show something similar to below

[1] Shell [2] Boot Manager [3] Reboot [4] Shutdown
Make sure the install DVD is inserted, pick 1, and type in:
FS1:\EFI\BOOT\BOOTAA64.EFI
The installer will do the rest, with the exception of figuring out the NIC MAC addresses. 3 NICs show up as having ethernet address of ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff, even though they are set correctly in u-boot.
At the Shell prompt, set MAC0 xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx & set MAC1 xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
but this was insufficient for the Centos installer to get an ip even after a reboot. What I did was change the kernel command line at the grub menu to include ip, netmask and to request vnc.
Yes, I went back through the thread and re-read about that bit. What worked for me is adding "ip=dhcp" to the kernel boot parameters. There are actually 4 NICs on this board, so I just added all 4 (MAC0-MAC3).
Yes, ip=dhcp is also good. Actually there are 5 nics :) Not sure why the installer only sees 3, unless the the third one it sees is the BMC interface, which you wouldn't normally expect.
