Hi Matheus,

Can you double check that you're saving the UEFI settings after setting "ACPI + 
DTB"? You need to hit F10 for the changes to stick.

I just downloaded and wrote the latest version of the bootloader, forgot to 
save after setting, and never got network devices during boot.

I just want to make sure that you aren't running into this.

Cheers!
