   =20

I found the instructions somewhat confusing (or lacking) about how to =
actually dial the connection to my PPP provider.  The=20

instructions say that I should only need to use "term" but don't offer =
any further steps for actually connecting to the provider.

I would appreciate any help you can give me on complete instructions for =
installing via FTP.  I had no trouble making the boot disk

and getting to the FTP part of the installation menu for novices.  I =
(obviously) have never attempted this before. =20

Thanks,

Donald Brown
