  strace doesn't have any dependencies so you should
be able to grab that deb from /var/cache/apt/archives
on the machine that is working or from the on-line
repositories.

  have you tried the latest testing installer images?

  and i always set the boot parameter to get eth0 naming
from the kernel:  net.ifnames=0

  sorry i cannot be more specific, but i don't have that
