Sure am.

Okay, moved edk2-platforms forward to commit d33742f303bdf335c3bb0203d7c273f10af6923f

Booted with the updated UEFI and kernel+modules, new dmesg.boot here: https://gist.github.com/agrajag9/a9702c04a659784c829a77d969f6315c

It looks like there's a handful of new things there, but unfortunately I still only see da0, which is the installer-imaged sdcard. Any ideas why the eMMC block device isn't showing up?

And I'll pull some drives off my shelves tomorrow to verify the SATA ports.
