It seems it a ideal idea to switch from u-Boot to UEFI on AR0.

Would you please share about how you install UEFI and how to revert to 

u-Boot when needed? I've found some tutorials, but the urls of the UEFI 

firmware seemed to be invalid.

Thank you for your generous help.

Best Regards,

So, you mean that u-Boot is almost useless on this motherboard?

It really sounds strange, is it because of u-Boot's poor compatibility?

But I've seen many DIYers using u-Boot on their ARM-Linux demo boards.

(Though I know UEFI definitely has a better compatibility on PC and servers.)

I have a working AR0, UEFI is installed and can be reverted if necessary but using u-boot rather than UEFI I lost some features such as one of the 10gig ports and the internal sdcard slot.
