OK, so the module is needed.
What is the output if you try to load it manually (modprobe i82365) from
VT2?
Note that there is probably very little we can do to resolve this. This
sounds like possibly a kernel issue and the 2.4.27 kernel is no longer
maintained.
Your best chance is probably to try to setup the network manually from
VT2, but that implies that you know which steps to follow...
If you are willing to install Etch instead of Sarge, you could try the
floppies availably from [1], which use a 2.6 kernel. These floppies are
still under development, but have resulted in successful installs.
You probably need the net-drivers-extra-2.6.img driver floppy (besides the
boot and root floppies).
