DHCP will be broken unless you add a DHCP package into the
base install. I *think* adding 'dhclient' into
/etc/rinse/centos-5.packages should be sufficient, but I admit
I've not found time to fix this yet.

I'd suggest that is the case. If it works with static IP from
scratch then changing the live system from DHCP -> static should
work just as well...
I'd just double-check the edits you've made. Possibly looking
at this might be useful:
