After a while i get: Hmm. What do you mean "dhcp starts"? The installer boots from USB stick using isolinux which has nothing to do with DHCP. You may have used the wrong image; you should have used: http://ftp.nl.debian.org/debian/dists/etch/main/installer-i386/current/images/hd-media/ (i.e: hd-media instead of netboot) You could also try the "flexible method" to create the USB stick and see if that works.
