I also saw this when installing Ubuntu Server 7.04 / i386 on an
Asus P5B-V motherboard.

Here is the detailed sequence of steps I went through:

- When the installer first attempted network autoconfiguration,
i had not yet plugged in the network cable, so the autoconfiguration
naturally failed.

- I connected the machine to a GigE switch.

- I retried network autoconfiguration; it still failed.

- I looked at the link light on the switch and found that it had
not turned on.

- I completed the installation with no network.

- After completing the installation, I ran "dhclient3 eth0" and
successfully obtained a lease. 

- I looked at the link light on the switch again and now it had turned
on.
