Subject: no prompt for DHCP during sysinst

I'm trying to install NetBSD 2.0 on my MiataGL (PWS 600au).
All goes fine until I select FTP as the installation media.
I see the "Which device shall I use? [tlp0]:" prompt, select the
default; ditto for "Network media type [autoselect]:".
At that point the installation docs
(http://www.netbsd.org/guide/en/chap-exinst.html#inst-ftp-dhcp) say I
should get a prompt for DHCP (which I want to select). But I get no
such prompt. Instead it goes directly to "Your DNS domain".
"ifconfig tlp0" says:
tlp0: flags=8802<BROADCAST,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
address: 01:23:45:67:89:ab
media: Ethernet autoselect instance 1 (none)
(address changed to protect the innocent)
I didn't see dhclient anywhere in the filesystem. Am I missing
something here?
Thanks in advance for any help,
Jim
