I don't know if it is the same or not, but my setup
for my DSL circuit does the same thing. Upon bootup
eth0 fails to get a DHCP address, but in my case
ADSL works great once system is up to terminal/X

Subject: Re: [expert] problems with network
I am running both RH 7.0 and Mandrake 7.2
RH has no problems.
Mandrake only has one.
When I install it detects and configures my Cable Modem (3Com) correctly and sets the
DHCP configuration correctly.
When I reboot Mandrake, it fails to initiate and configure the Cable Modem correctly,
Could not determine DHCP address.
Tried to configure it manualy with the same results.
Any help would be appreciated.
