Dialup cannot be supported by the current ppp-udeb package (it lacks at least a chat binary) and I don't believe supporting a full dialup netinstall is worth the effort, users probably want to install base anyway from the 120 MB CD image. >I'm unsure what kind of configuration PPPoA needs.

Cannot be supported, we are not using rp-pppoe. Anyway, currently ppp-udeb should support PPPoE netinstall, but it has not been tested and I do not know when joeyh plans to integrate the package. Either it goes in, or the kernel ppp modules package is removed. -- ciao, Marco -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
