You really don't provide *any* useful information for us to help you or 
fix a problem, if there is any. I actually do not think there is a 
problem as static network configuration works fine for me and does show a 
dialog asking for DNS servers to use.

If you want us to look into this, you should at least provide the 
following information:
- what architecture you are installing
- *exactly* what D-I image and installation method you are using (please
  give the full URL of the image you downloaded)
- some information about your home network and internet connection
- the exact steps you followed to configure the network
- the contents of /etc/network/interfaces and /etc/resolv.conf after
  that network configuration

If you do not provide this info, our only option is to just close your 
report.

Cheers,
FJP
