hi shawn!

sorry, i should have been clearer:
superrescue is a rescue-cd, i.e. like a boot/rescue-floppy, but
with 700 megs on it, lots of tools and some luxury: x11/gnome.
it's a boot-cd, which is independent of any hd.
that means upgrading rp-pppoe on the cd is probably not that easy.

dmesg:
...
PPP generic driver version 2.4.1
PPP Deflate Compression module registered
...
(quite normal, but no tulip drivers, no nic/eth info)

lsmod:
ppp_deflate
bsd_comp
ppp_async
ppp_generic
...
(all used by autoclean!?)

though lan-connections work, adsl-dialup is not working:
command #ifconfig<enter> should show ppp0 like eth0, if up
and should do this always, or...? - i think so.

dns-issue?
if ppp0 was up, i could still connect+telnet to static ip-adresses on 
the web, like the pop/smtp-server of my isp. that's not possible.

at the the moment i'm sitting in front of two computer, a stable 
linux-server/station and the one i loaded the superrescue-boot-cd on.
the mail and the (dynamic)IP-adresses in the mail-headers you are 
reading, are from the stable computer.


if you have another idea:  great!
