Cool! Yes, this one works:

tr --set pretty_mac x: x- $net_default_mac

BTW, one thing I noticed is that, it seems the file downloading from
tftp server for grub2 in uEFI netboot mode is not fast, compared to PXE
netboot.

In the PXE netboot mode on the same VM machine, the rate is about twice
faster. Any method I can make it faster in uEFI netboot mode?
Oh, yes, please allow me to ask me one more question, I am editing a
grub config to have a local boot:
menuentry "First local disk" --id local-disk {
  echo "Booting first local disk..."
  set root=(hd0,1)
  if [ -e /EFI/redhat/grub.efi ]; then
    chainloader /EFI/redhat/grub.efi +1
  elif [ -e /EFI/fedora/shim.efi ]; then
    chainloader /EFI/fedora/shim.efi +1
  elif [ -e /EFI/fedora/grubx64.efi ]; then
    chainloader /EFI/fedora/grubx64.efi +1
  elif [ -e /EFI/debian/grubx64.efi ]; then
    chainloader /EFI/debian/grubx64.efi +1
  elif [ -e /EFI/ubuntu/grubx64.efi ]; then
    chainloader /EFI/ubuntu/grubx64.efi +1
  elif [ -e /EFI/opensuse/grubx64.efi ]; then
    chainloader /EFI/opensuse/grubx64.efi +1
  elif [ -e /EFI/Boot/bootx64.efi ]; then
    chainloader /EFI/Boot/bootx64.efi +1
  elif [ -e /EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi ]; then
    chainloader /EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi +1
  else
    echo "No uEFI image was found!"
    sleep 15
  fi

Is that possible I can use "search" or other command to make this?
Appreciate!

Steven.
