It looks like when you ran tsbootrom-update you forgot to update your MAC 
address.  You currently have a MAC address of FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:00 which most 
machines will consider to be broadcast address (Some OSs look at first byte, 
some look at first and second, and some consider only all FFs to be broadcast). 
 You will need to set a valid IP address before you will be able to get a MAC 
address.  Please send a request to  if you would like us 
to look up your MAC address based on your serial number.  Please provide your 
serial number, name/company that the order was put in as, and approximate order 
date.
