For an http proxy, set the environment variable[1] http_proxy to
your proxy's url (ie. http://proxy:port/). This also works for
other http-y things, like lynx, so it would probably be worth it
to put it in .profile/
How can I setup apt-get to work through a proxy?

I guess it is using pump (/sbin/pump) to configure the interface, that is
one of the first ~100 processes so I'd imagine it is started when my net
card is initialised.
Pump is what dpkg tells me is the replacement for dhcpd, but dhcpd is also
out there (you can get either from apt-get install).
actualy to get a dhcp address is as simple as typing dhcpcd as root
(you don't need to init the interface dhcpcd will do it for you)
you should already have a dhcpcd rc file ready to simlink into your run
level if you want it to init dhcpcd on bootup
since I work in so many diffrent environments
Check out /etc/network/interfaces
instead of something like
iface eth0 inet static
(blah blah blah blah)
you will need to use:
iface eth0 inet dhcp
You should be able to ifdown and ifup and get the interface running
right... I don't think you need to compile any extra support into your
kernel
