Re: Upgrade script, bo to hamm



     The obvious question (please don't take offense) is: Did you
start ppp before entering dselect?  dselect, or rather dpkg-ftp, will
attempt to make an ftp connection, but assumes that a ppp connection
is up.  It does not check, AFAIK, to see if there is such a connection.
