Could you please post your /etc/network/interfaces file ?

I suspect that you have a interface listed there as 'auto' that is not
plugged in. If that is the case, the correct solution for you is to
remove that line or comment it out. To be clear, I suspect you have
something like:
  auto eth0
  iface eth0 inet dhcp

but your eth0 is not plugged in.
