 Thank you for this report. I hope this will help us track down the
 problem. 

I have just tried the daily build businesscard iso for Nov 13 and the
problem no longer occurs.  eth1 can be configured to use DHCP and it
works.

Thank you for this report. I hope this will help us track down the
problem. 

could you please test the following:
1. If the af_packet kernel module is loaded. It is needed for dhcp and
should be loaded automatically.
2. If you can set up static networking (using netcfg-static or on the
console)
3. If dhcp works on your installed system you could try to figure out
the differences in the d-i setup and the installed system.

No, it's not loaded.  After the Feel free to retry message I started
a shell and ran lsmod, af_packet is not listed.  I ran dhclient eth1
from the prompt and it produced

  Internet Software Consortium DHCP Client 2.0pl5

  /etc/dhclient-script: 99: sleep: not found
  socket: Address family not supported by protocol

  exiting.

Next I ran modprobe to load af_packet, then I exited the shell and
tried Configure the network via DHCP again.  It failed again.
Finally I went back to the shell and ran dhclient eth1 by hand
(af_packet is still loaded) and it successfully negogiated a lease.

Perhaps the sleep: not found message indicates the problem?

 2. If you can set up static networking (using netcfg-static or on the
 console)

It fails in the same way, a red screen with a Feel free to retry
message.

 3. If dhcp works on your installed system you could try to figure out
 the differences in the d-i setup and the installed system.

This machine normally runs stable, with a customised SMP kernel.  I
have via-rhine in /etc/modules and the lines

  auto eth0
  iface eth0 inet static
address   192.168.1.2
netmask   255.255.255.0
  auto eth1
  iface eth1 inet dhcp

in /etc/network/interfaces.  I don't know where to look for
differences.

I just tried the new beta ISO images and the problem still occurs.
The appropriate ethernet module gets loaded (via-rhine) but Configure
the network using dhcp fails.  Looking in syslog I see
