This is not a problem with dhcp I believe. Basically they are getting an error
eth0 failed; no link present. Check cable?
This comes from the ifup script. The ifup script is calling the check_link_down
function in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/network-functions.
This code runs the following
if [ -x /sbin/mii-tool ]; then
LC_ALL=C ip link show $1 2>/dev/null| grep -q UP || ip link set $1 up
>/dev/null 2>&1
# wait for link to come up
sleep 5
/sbin/mii-tool $1 >/dev/null 2>&1 || return 1
...
/sbin/mii-tool is probably returning an error like
eth0: no link
So we need to know why the card is taking more than 5 seconds to get up or put
the script in a loop to check for more than 5 seconds.

Either way this bug should be reassigned to initscripts
