 I've finally worked out what the problem is and how to work around it:  
 initialisation of the virtualised network interface with DHCP doesn't  
 work. If after booting, the interface is reconfigured using Sysinstall  
 (and I'm sure there is another more direct way) then everything works  
 fine. Both shared and dedicated network interfaces work fine if you follow  
 this. I have submitted another bug report to Parallels.
