Well, it seems that I can't even go back to my original set of firmware
as UEFI has stopped working:

UEFI firmware (version v2.1 built at 14:41:56 on Oct 23 2014)
Warning: Fail to load FDT file 'juno.dtb'.
This again because of incompatibility of the configuration data saved in
NOR flash. The erase command I gave early is to erase that when you
switched between the UEFI binaries. It's really horrible mess UEFI
created in the initial days of Juno, and hopefully they have moved to
some standard format these days.
and UEFI is the most unfriendly thing going - the "boot manager" thing
doesn't let you view the configuration:
I completely agree. I had real bad times in past dealing with such
things in UEFI.
[1] Linux from NOR Flash
[2] Shell
[3] Boot Manager
Start: 3
[1] Add Boot Device Entry
[2] Update Boot Device Entry
[3] Remove Boot Device Entry
[4] Reorder Boot Device Entries
[5] Update FDT path
[6] Set Boot Timeout
[7] Return to main menu
Choice:
and dropping into the shell... well, I've no idea how to get a listing
of what it thinks is in the NOR device (or even how to refer to the
NOR device.) "devices" shows nothing that's even remotely English.
I think startup.nsh needs some edits. Just replace it with something like:
"norkern dtb=board.dtb console=ttyAMA0,115200n8 root=/dev/nfs rw
rootwait ip=dhcp systemd.log_target=null nfsroot=..." or something
alike. Currently it just echos and stops.
Regarding the new firmware stopping abruptly, I have no clue, except
asking you to erase the flash completely when switching between the
firmware versions. That has worked for me for all UEFI related issues in
the past. It's really annoying I understand.
