OK .... here's an "EASY" (ie foolproof) way to do what you want. These
may
not be the most elegant ways to achieve a solution but they work for
me every time.
Firstly I never use any form of boot manager ..... I've got unix
running SCSI
drives and Windows running IDE. BIOS is set to look for IDE drives
first,
SCSI second The IDE drive is in a removable cradle with a nifty little
lock
cum switch. If the switch is off, the IDE drive isn't started, and the
system
boots into unix, if the switch is on, the IDE drive starts and boots
into Windows.
I guess a variation of this would be to setup unix on one primary
drive and
Windows on the other primary, then use BIOS to switch between boot
drives ..
but I haven't had reason to try that yet.
Secondly, the ppp issue. I had most of the typical newbie problems
with it until
I discovered the atached script which got me online with very little
trouble other
than a minor bit of editing the ppp.conf file. Hopefully you are
taking the easier
route here by running user-ppp instead of the (reportedly) more
complicated
kernel-ppp. I've yet to have significant problems with any machine
where I've
used the script, but in case you do there's a resident user-ppp guru
by the name
of Brian Somers lurking around here someplace who can undoubtedly help
resolve any residual user-ppp issues. I've never been able to contact
the author
of the script but I'd gladly buy him a beer or three if he ever visits
Brisbane
Australia :)

| This script automagically sets up user ppp for your particular |
| system's setup according to questions that you answer. It will |
| then write the appropriate files in /etc/ppp/ for you so that |
| you can easily be on your way to dial up network connectivity. |
| |
| |
| |
| |
| The following files will be modified: |
| |
| /etc/ppp/ppp.conf Information about your ISP, modem, etc. |
| /etc/ppp/ppp.linkup Used after a connection is established. |
| /etc/ppp/ppp.secret* Allows you to change ppp on the fly. |
| /etc/hosts Contains the IP addresses of your machines. |
| /etc/host.conf Instructions for the resolver. |
| /etc/resolv.conf Tells the resolver how to behave. |
| |
| *Will not be written. |

| Before you start, it is assumed you are roughly in this position: |
| |
| * You have an account with an ISP ,and your modem already configured. |
| |
| * You know your ISP's phone number(s). |
| |
| * You know your login name and password. |
| |
| * You know the IP address of your ISP's gateway. If you don't know |
| it, don't worry. We can make one up. |
| |
| * Your ISP's netmask setting. Again, if you don't know it, we can |
| safely use a netmask of 255.255.255.0. |
| |
| * The IP address of one or more nameservers. You MUST have this! |
| |
| * If your ISP has given you a static IP address, you will need to |
| have it handy. If not, we can configure PPP to accept any IP |
| number. |

| Ok, now I'm going to write the following PPP related files: |
| |
| /etc/ppp/ppp.conf This will contain your modem's port number, |
| the speed at which we'll talk to your modem, |
| the dial string, the login string, your ISP's |
| phone number, your username and password, |
| and your static IP address if you have one. |
| |
| /etc/ppp/ppp.linkup This will contain the lines delete ALL, and |
| add 0 0 HISADDR. This will delete all of |
| the existing routing tables for the tun |
| device, and add a default route to your ISP's |
| gateway. |
| |
| /etc/ppp/ppp.secret* This will not be written, but it allows you |
| to change PPP on the fly. |
