That is a "standard" no-server-available DHCP client address. If you're
getting that, either the DHCPDISCOVER isn't getting to the server, or the
server response isn't getting back. Can you 'tcpdump' from a third-party
system to see what's happening? (That'll actually only work on an
unswitched hub, but if you can do that...)
