Hi David.
Thanks for assistance.
I tried this config. Nothing.
I think we should on first step get manual config working on original MBM2.
I also tried it on MBM2 with 4Gbit density 
gVlvRefCodePkgTokenSpaceGuid.PcdDimmDensity|2 and also nothing.
I build debug version of fw and there is debug output:
MRC Parameters not valid. status is 8000000E
Set MRC paramaters for Customer Board. MRC parameters are patched by PCD.
DRAM_Speed is type 3, EccEnabled = 0
tCL = 11
tRP_tRCD = 11
tWR = 12
tWTR = 6
tRRD = 6
tRTP = 6
tFAW = 32

Our Minnowboard Quattro (4 cores) supports 1GB, 2GB, 4GB and 8 GB configurations. We also have an integrated nanoSSD on board, ranging from 8GB to 64GB.
