reboots it loses its network config Because it can no longer connect
to the mirror site (any mirror site). What file do I need to edit to
set a proper network config, for the first portion of the Install DHCP

Make sure you have kernel support for your nic (lsmod, modconf, modprobe).
Make sure /etc/networking/interfaces is configured properly (example
file or "man interfaces")
Make sure /etc/resolv.conf has your ISP's name servers listed.
Can you ping local machines by name? by number? remote machines by name?
by number?
