-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi everyone, yesterday I installed FreeBSD 5.3 release through a PPPoE connection. I booted from the Mini Install CD. In the end everything worked out fine but I had some trouble with the PPPoE connection. Namely I had to load the ng_pppoe and ng_socket modules manually at the loader prompt. Isn't ppp supposed to automatically load them on demand? Anyway, I regret that it's still necessary to select a modem installation and fiddle around with ppp to use a PPPoE Internet connection during the install process. It doesn't look like a major effort to me to improve sysinstall in that way. I'm kind of willing to contribute such a feature. Could anyone familiar with the sysinstall sources give me a hint where to start?
