I already have /base, /compat*/, /doc, /manpages, and /src/ssys.* in the DOS partition in a freebsd directory. After the installation of this minimal base I will need to connect into my adsl service using pptp. I have the pptp package downloaded and in the DOS partition. Will I need to do anything else? Do I need to compile a custom kernel to use pptp? I am concerned about this because in the process of installing FreeBSD, I will be wiping out my Linux partition and the ability to use that partition which is already connected to my adsl service.
