Run the configuration again, and now say `Yes' when it asks you `IP: kernel level autoconfiguration'. However, this is not what you want. The kernel DHCP option is used for special situations (e.g., when you're running a diskless client). Since you have a working Debian system, it is unlikely you need this. Use the standard kernel, and install a DHCP client. (Normally, pump should already be installed.)
