Neat. It seems that Marco D'Itri, ppp maintainer, has activated the post
installation script for ppp-udeb (the Debian Installer minimal version
of ppp), so allegedly it's supposed to be minimally useful right now. I
will take a look at it.

If you want to help, David Nusinow and I are considering making the port
of pppconfig and pppoeconf, so we might feed a tweaked image to you
later on along the line.
