There are instructions here:

http://wiki.macchiatobin.net/tiki-index.php?page=Build+from+source+-+UEFI+EDK+II

Which seem to generally be what I'm doing combined with the instructions 
for starting the firmware from SD, although I think I swapped the DTB in 
the image for a more recent version from upstream linux.

Putting the UEFI image on SD, I can successfully boot the fedora 
installer from USB (rawhide/f29, haven't tried PXE) and the resulting 
installed image can also boot from SATA. It still has a few warts (ACPI 
for one) but, I imagine that a fairly recent opensuse/debian should at 
least boot.
