That's it! debootstrap didn't populate /etc/hosts with the address for 
the loopback device, so there wasn't an address to assign to the 
interface. lo is up at boot now, but SSH still doesn't start at boot 
(and yes, I did make sure it's set to start up by my default runlevel). 
I'll have to look into that one further; just getting used to 
debootstrap, I guess. Thanks!
