Before chrooting did you copy resolv.conf from the boot environment? That's always worked for me. I don't think you require dhcpd to make this work. All you have to do is point at your DSL router, assuming the router has dhcp enabled. The router serves up the IP addresses and also acts as the name server. I think possibly you missed a command. - Mark
