I reinstalled and included the ppp driver this time (as well as serial),
but I have no idea what to do with these scripts. I'd rather have
someone help me than mess everything up and have to reinstall.

I just thought that if they include the Mitsumi CD driver, and I have a
Mitsumi CD-drive, I'm supposed to use that driver. Anyways, I installed
cdrom.c (often used routines).

Any help with ppp scripts would be welcome,
