Maybe still same issue: powering problems. Since people are busy feeding bug trackers that work like a trash can (you throw things in and nothing will happen) or following silly workaround paths instead of following the advices given here to try to nail the problems down no progress has been made since weeks.
Some of the devs suspect that GbE related connection problems are related to underpower,inf situations, users were asked to ensure providing stable 5V to their board and report back but zero feedback so far. Since you get boot loops with connected WiFi you could also try to connect something power hungry to the USB ports. If the board doesn't boot up you know what to blame: crappy Micro USB used for DC-IN.
In that case try powering through the Euler connector and report back whether boot loops and Ethernet problems are gone. BTW: Self assigning an address in the 169.254.0.0/16 range is quite normal if no DHCP server could be reached.
