I have used a later version of what I beleive is the same patch.
http://source.mvista.com/~ank/paulus-powerpc/20060309/
This is for the PLB TEMAC. My guess based on your capture below is
that you are using that IP.
Did you try ifconfig eth0 xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx ?
I do not know what is in the rest of your init setup but something
must asign the IP and bring up the interface.
