Hello, Are you able to connect with your ISP using M$-Lose ? If so, (even if it's contrary to your faith in FreeBSD ;-)), do download the base distribution (RELEASE-x-x-x/bin and RELEASE-x-x-x/src/ssys.*) to your local hard drive (within M$, you can tolerate downloading in "n" times). Then you'll be safer installing from this local drive (installing from PPP adds the troubles of getting a good internet connection to those of the install itself). TfH ____________________________ Séparateur Réponse ________________________________ Objet : Help installing FreeBSD via PPP Auteur : darrengi@sfu.ca Date : 16/07/98 17:56 I've searched the Net and have found alot of people who have had the same problem as I have in regards to PPP and their ISP. The problem is, that I haven't found a solution! The problem is that when I try to connect to my ISP using PPP, my ISP tries to negotiate IPX and AppleTalk protocols. My end does not know what these protocols are, and promptly rejects them, which in the end, dropps the connection. Here's some of the log output: Phase: New Phase: Network Phase: Unknown protocol 0x8029 (Appletalk Control Protocol) LCP: LcpSendProtoRej Phase: Unknown protocol 0x802b (Novell IPX Control Protocol) LCP: LcpSendProtoRej LCP: Received Terminate Request (19) state = Opened (9) Is there any way to turn IPX and AppleTalk on at my end? I'm trying to install FreeBSD via PPP and all I have to go with is the FreeBSD boot disk! What can I do to prevent my side from rejecting these protocols? Thanx for any help LaterZ! Darren!!
