the errors you got are probably in the functions that define the Ethernet MAC address. There is a function that reads a specific part of flash to determine the board MAC address, and this is of course dependant on the flash memory you use. You can use a fixed MAC for now, but you will eventually have to write your own MAC address reader.

Good luck!
