Ferchu,

looks like you may have gotten a board that doesn't have the MAC programmed.
programming the MAC is part of the automated test process and we've not seen any
other issues with boards going out without MAC addresses. as a work around you
can assign a mac address from linux prior to starting dhcp client.
