Unfortunately there aren't many option in the menu system and I didn't see =
anything obvious like that. The Device Manager shows an empty Devices List,=
 and the Boot Manager only lets me select FS and BLK devices. The Boot Main=
tenance Manager menu has sub-menus for Boot Options, Driver Options, Consol=
e Options, and Boot From File - but again no mentions of ACPI or DTBs.
