It are indeed the IDs that where missing.
80861229 matches eepro100 in the discover data.
( http://cvs.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/?cvsroot=pkg-discover
discover1-data the file pci.lst )
The eepro100 module is in kernel/linux-kernel-di/modules/i386/nic-extra-modules
of the debian-installer CVS module, also at alioth.
IIRC the nic-etra-modules floppy has to be loaded addtionally.
BTW, you can run lspci on a installed computer.

I belief in education of users, telling them
they are flooding the people that they are asking for help or a fix.
