Are you sure this is an U-Boot related problem? I think this  is  off
topic here.

What makes you think so?

Obviously your MAC address i set to 24:00:00:00:00:00.

Obviously this is NOT a valid MAC address. Please  pay  attention  to
standards   and   regulations.  You  should  NOT  use  arbitrary  MAC
addresses.

U-Boot booted Linux just fine. What you see  here  is  not  a  U-Boot
related problem.

Actually the message is pretty clear: "Server returned error -101"

The Linux kernel tells you that your NFS server returned  error  code
101. Looking this up in errno.h reveals: "Network is unreachable"

You will have to check your NFS server configuration.
