 hd-media SD card images do not contain network drivers. Network drivers 
 are provided by nic*-modules udeb packages included in installation ISO 
 images. 
  
 IIUC the driver for this PHY is at803x. It is included in 
 nic-shared-modules udeb which is present in the netinst ISO image. 
  
 Maybe what is missing is the *ethernet* driver ? Can you find which one 
 is used in the running system ?
