Thanx for big help, dear friends, i found the reason%
it was ... the BIOS ASUS A7V-E ACPI BIOS Revision 1002A
kernel-level dhcp doesnt work, if card is in 4/5/6 pci slots!!
it hangs, and if the card is put in 5th slot even grub dhcp stops working
and says th rtl8139 is 10mbps and wrong hw address

So, if you have A7V-e mboard, dont put kernel-level configured NIC
in 4/5/6 pci slots, put it in one of 1 2 3 

wufff.. thats all
