we had the same issue today, on PIII motherboard. (we have just plugged in
as a terminal)
in the bios, we disabled the boot from lan or the lan device on the board.
and it solved it :-)
(we were getting dhcpd error just before X was up)
we have a nic with boot-rom that loads the kernel.
i hope it will solve your issue :-)
