I quoted error because I searched for this MAC on all my VMs and did not find another MAC being the same. What I've seen is that if the original MAC ends with :01, the new one (clone) has a MAC that ends with :02. I then start this new cloned VM and it works fine - after changing the MAC value on the network config files on the VM's SO.
