Hi! Finally got around to trying to boot my ROCK64.

Trying to netboot the March 7 current snapshot, the loader doesn't work:

=> bootefi ${kernel_addr_r} ${fdt_addr_r}
## Starting EFI application at 02000000 ...
Consoles: EFI console
efipart_inithandles failed 2, expect failuresCommand line arguments: loader.efi
Image base: 0x2000000
EFI version: 2.05
EFI Firmware: Das U-boot (rev 0.00)

FreeBSD/arm64 EFI loader, Revision 1.1

## Application terminated, r = 14


Replacing loader.efi with an older one (the one I use on the RPi3)
gets me into the loader prompt, but the network doesn't work:

Type '?' for a list of commands, 'help' for more detailed help.


The u-boot version is:
