We're lacking some information here. Were you prompted for DNS servers
(you should have been) ?

You first had a failure of DHCP (because no DHCP server on your
network). If so, this is expected. Then you should be prompted for IP,
netmask and DNS servers. Have you been? If so, have you checked the
values you have put there?

Which type of support did you use? "netinst" CD, "businesscard" CD or
something else? Which release of the installer?

When did the failure occur? In first stage (before the reboot) or
second stage? From what you mention, this seems to be second stage
(meaning that you used a "netinst" CD or a full CD).

As you see, we lack a lot of information to properly deal with this
bug report...
