Hi,
Actually, I'm running Red Hat Linux now, so I would be using dd to copy
any floppy images, that's no problem. The problem has been I've found no
information on even the sketchiest details of what's involved.
If you would, be as long winded as possible (really! You seem to have
the Debian PPP installation method down) on what's involved, how you do
it, etc. I'm in limbo now, well almost. =)
