There are at least two problems with your U-Boot 1.1.3 configuration:

> #define CONFIG_ETHADDR        OO:11:22:33:44:55    /* board MAC addr
*/

The first byte "OO" is two capital Os; perhaps "00" was the intended
first byte of the MAC address?:

#define CONFIG_ETHADDR        00:11:22:33:44:55    /* board MAC addr
*/

> #define CONFIG_IPADDR        10:10:10:2            /* board IP addr
*/ 

The bytes of a v4 IP number must be separated by "." (not ":"):

#define CONFIG_IPADDR        10.10.10.2            /* board IP addr
*/

Other than the above two suggestions, please try using a U-Boot version
more current than 1.1.3, such as 1.3.x.

Ken Fuchs
