Hmm.. those errors indicate that funguloids.mpk and bootstrap.mpk files 
are either corrupted, or don't get loaded correctly. I suspect the 
latter. And actually it must be that, since the MPK files have a CRC32 
in them that is checked. Perhaps some Ogre changes prevent the custom 
MPakArchive from working properly.

First thing you could try, is check these lines in mpakogre.cpp: (lines 
140-143)

// Construct and return stream
DataStreamPtr mpak(new MPakDataStream(filename, 
fil,(size_t)mPakFile->current_file_size,(size_t)mPakFile->current_file_offset));
return DataStreamPtr(new MemoryDataStream(filename, mpak));

//return DataStreamPtr(new MPakDataStream(filename, 
fil,(size_t)mPakFile->current_file_size,(size_t)mPakFile->current_file_offset));

I remember having some issues with the commented line, which should work 
as it is, IMHO. I found out that creating a MemoryDataStream of the 
MPakDataStream would work, but perhaps something has been done to that. 
Try commenting the active lines and uncommenting the last line there.

Other than that, I have no idea at the moment. I'll probably investigate 
this further once I have some time.. :) Thanks for reporting this, 
though - and do drop me a note if you get it working.
