When I booted the Network Install image for Debian stable, no ethernet card was detected. However, the ethernet card worked fine when using booting Armbian rk3588-live-iso in Device Tree mode.

The README file states that ethernet is "tested/supported" in Linux in ACPI mode. I will try booting Ubuntu 22.04, with kernel 5.15.0-75-generic.

The Orange Pi 5 has GMAC ethernet, which does not work in ACPI mode

Right, it says PCIe Ethernet, e.g. Realtek on some boards.

I see. Is this a work-in-progress or out of scope for the project?

No plans for it. Device Tree is the way to go on Linux, but you need to use a fairly recent kernel.
