This sounds like a slightly different scenario of the exact same problem I am having when trying to start an install from within a Vmware workstation 4 (which is a major issue since we use it a lot for testing). Same symptoms though.

I'm having a similar DHCP problems with IBM xseries servers. We have a cluster of IBM xseries 330 servers, managed with xcat (now IBM supported) via one main linux node. The management node, as we call it, is running Linux 7.3 and is the TFTP/DHCP server (works fine on the back end network (two nics) to do PXE installs of Linux). We are now attempting to use the same setup to build some servers as Windows 2000 (business request, not personal choice). The x330 family uses Intel Pro 100 NICs, using the E100B.dos driver. The network boot gets stuck when tcptsr.exe is called to get an address. Things just hang at this point. I read somewhere on microsoft that tcptsr.exe would hang without options dhcp-rebinding-time and dhcp-renewal-time, which both have now been added to dhcpd.conf with a value of 300 (seconds). still no go. Anyone have a similar type setup, or run into similar issues with tcptsr.exe? Is there anything I should specifically include in the dhcpd.conf file for the address to be returned? I really feel the issue is on the server end...
