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

minute and it will eventually get further.)

Eventually that will get you to the bit blow as Phong mentioned previously:

[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.

I seem to recall that Michael had the same problem.
