Jack,
I've had a couple of reports of this problem, but i've not yet been able
to reproduce it myself.
It is correct that there is a 2nd dhcp request. that is because the
bootrom doesn't pass the information to the kernel, so once the Linux
kernel is running, the workstation needs to make a dhcp request of its
own.
Are you booting with PXE or Etherboot ?
