Well, maybe a few questions will help you formulate an attack plan.
Are you trying to get a dynamic or a static IP?
What does a search of 'eth' in the output of `dmesg` produce?
What is the output of `ifconfig -a`?
What do you remember about your choices in the network configuration
portion of the installation process?
A google search on 'debian network configuration' turned up a number
of promising links, including this one:
