It means your system is setup to ask a DHCP server for an IP adress.
Since you do not have a DHCP server there will be no answer to your dhcp
requests.
Change /etc/network/interfaces, and change the config there (see man
interfaces)
It should look something like this:
interface eth0 inet static
address x.x.x.x
network x.x.x.x
netmask 255.255.255.0
