Not much to see. Your machine sends out DHCPDISCOVER packets and gets
silence in response.

Now, it might be nice to see how it works when you boot this puppy
into Windows. (It occurs to me that you never said outright that when
you say it works in Windows you are talking about dual-booting the
same machine. That _is_ what you mean, right?) A packet capture of
what it is doing would be great. Try installing Ethereal and Winpcap
then renew the lease. Not sure what Windows OS you were using. If it
is Win9x, start a packet capture, bring up "winipcfg.exe" and tell it
to "renew" (or something like that).
