I really meant unlikely to be related issues...

 I will send you
 one directly. I can reveal now that it will not contain 
 any packets after it has downloaded syslinux.efi.

I saw that; a clean transfer but syslinux.efi aborts.


Please do this: 

1) Boot your HP to the UEFI shell while you have a formatted USB pendrive connected

2) get an IP with

Shell> ifconfig -s eth0 dhcp

3) find the pendrive device by browsing the results of

Shell> map

4) now get the FW handles redirecting stdout to the pendrive

Shell> dh > pendrivedevice:\handles.txt

5) upload handles.txt somewhere

Best,
Patrick
