[MinnowBoard] Minnowboard Max no longer booting to UEFI Shell

[Bastian Wassermann]

So i don't think this is an hardware issue because hdmi is working in
linux. So it should be a firmware problem. So if this will be patched in
firmware,I could make a firmware update with an ftdi cable and everything
will be right?
