To connect to the internet (provider) during the installation of Debian 8.2, you need to set the mac address before setting up the network (provider identifies by mac). How can this be done with this stripped-down command line? ifconfig is not there. Should I change /etc/network/interfaces ?
Connecting through a router is expensive. Maybe it's easier to download the DVD version and then set up the network?

During the installation, iproute2 seems to be available. Respectively

ip link set down dev eth0
ip link set dev eth0 address AA:BB:CC:DD:EE:FF
ip link set up dev eth0
