Hello, and sorry for the _very_ late reply.
To sum up the past experiments and this mail: I can't reproduce anymore.
I couldn't try for the past weeks, and this weekend, I retried with the versions I previously used:
- Sarge / Debian 3.1-pre2 netinstall
- daily installer from around 19 November
The DHCP offer/request went smoothly, so I can only suspect a misconfiguration on my server, which I don't recall fixing unfortunately. I therefore believe this bug is dead.

A DHCP-discover does not request any ip, it asks for one. Is it possible that the server have a lease for this mac?
No, my previous mail showed that the lease was -1 (infinite).
tcpdump -ni $interface "udp port 67"
I believe this was only necessary on the server if I would properly properly log and dump (-w) packets. Just in case it reappears, can you confirm this?
If not, how would I have access to tcpdump on the system being installed? Have a working system installed, mount its root, and chroot from it?
Again, thanks and sorry for the inconvenience.
