Hey guys,
I have a strange problem, I've done installs of arch easily in the past and I recently did a new install and some things are differently organized and I've run into a bit of a problem. I've done a clean install of Arch with GRUB and a 2MB /Boot partition, but when I restart the computer it displays this message:
CLIENT MAC ADDR:(my computers mac address) GUID:(numbers and letters)
DHCP.....The DHCP has some dots followed by a rotating progress bar.
After it's tried that for about a minuet it goes to the BIOS boot selector, including my DVD drive and hard drive, and it just gets stuck from there.
The interesting thing is that when I boot with the arch CD and select boot from existing OS, it is able to boot into the ARCH system.
Sorry if I'm not making it clear, I'll post pictures as well.

It seems as if your machine tries to boot via lan.
I guess your boot order in bios is messed up
I put at button on it. Yes. I wish to press it, but I'm not sure what will happen if I do. (Gune | Titan A.E.)

EDIT: I changed the BIOS settings to check the HDD first and it still ends up going to the LAN boot. I'm not sure if it's my machine configuration or the Arch settings.
