kernel errors with PPP
I after installing the base Debain 2.1 using the cdrom I rebooted and
attempted to continue the package installation process via apt PPP.
When I attempted to dial up (pon provider) after pppconfig I got weird
kernel error to standard out. So I decied to install from the CD instead.
After doing this and rebooting I noticed that 'pon provider' started to
work!! Maybe I installed something necessary?! ANYWAYS after dialing up
and installing some packages via apt PPP my dialup STOPPED working.
This time the errors showed up in /var/log/messages so I've appended them
to the end of this email incase anybody can help.
I'd really like to not have to keep rebooting to RedHat to dial up.
Thanks for any help sombody might bestow on me. Marlon
