You have to enable the USB networking emulation, which IMHO is kind of
an abomination*.  If you really want to do this, follow the guide of
your choice for configuring Debian networking, and you can use the
shipping BeagleBone setup as an example.  Or if you're really ambitious,
feel free to get the networking setup code from RCN's upstream
omap-image-builder scripts working with MachineKit image builds.  I
might actually be willing to include USB networking in the images if
someone sets it up and is willing to test and make sure it works.

(*) It's not that Ethernet over USB is all that bad, but the way this is
setup by default on the BeagleBone, the 'Bone will not have working DNS,
can't see the internet (unless you are _very_ crafty at setting up
networking on the device you connect to the 'Bone), and generally almost
nothing running on the 'Bone will work with networking in any sort of
way that you would expect.  Save yourself a lot of headache, treat the
'Bone like the computer it is, and give it the network connection it
deserves!  :)
