Toshiba Portégé M800-10C , eth0:timed out

So , i'm trying to install archlinux with the new archboot 2008.12 isos

Everything installed fine via a cd install (arch64), so i rebooted on my computer to find that internet via ethernet doesn't work.

Ethernet & Wifi worked just fine on linux mint or ubuntu 8.10

The  boot-up process displays an "eth0: timed out" on startup, heres the output of lspci for ethernet and wifi :

07:00.0 Ethernet controller: Marvell Technology Group Ltd. 88E8040 PCI-E Fast Ethernet Controller (rev 12)
08:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation Wireless WiFi Link 5100

hwdetect --net

MODULES=(sky2 iwlagn iwlcore)

lsmod correctly shows that iwlagn and iwlcore are loaded

iwlwifi-5000-ucode is correctly installed

eth0 is correctly set as eth0=dhcp in /etc/rc.conf

running dhcpcd eth0 outputs :

eth0: dhcpcd 4.0.4 starting
eth0: broadcasting for a lease
eth0: timed out

Damn i want to use arch so bad :'( help !
