Hi all users, and especially french users.

I received my freebox today (a DSL modem provided by Free.fr). I want to
switch from my old USB Alcatel Speedtouch modem to this new modem. The
Linux part of the documentation is only for Debian users, and I didn't
find anything general enough to make up my mind.

The modem has USB and Ethernet connections. I'd like to use the Ethernet
connection. The documentation mentions the use of a dhcp client to use
it. So I read the Dhcp client part of the BLFS book. But I don't know how
to fit the doc tips to the book : it says that I should configure
an /etc/network/interfaces file for the eth0 port, and add something
like :

# configuration eth0 for DHCP via Freebox
auto iface eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp

How should this be translated to the BLFS system ?

Thanks for any advice, especially if you're a Freebox user.
