Hello everybody,
Well, seems I must emerge system to get to passwd. I
maybe could find the distfiles I need on the
universal-install iso but wouldn't you know it? theres
no loop module on the min-install to do the job.
OK, so I oughta be able to dialout to the webby world
and emerge system that way. Wrong! When I run
pppconfig, I get "no ui". So I go look for "pppconfig
"no ui" " on my back up unit(where I am now). Too
weird! So I copy over the ppp config files
_word_for_word from the backup to the new unit. Now
the thing dials out to ? The modem lights flicker as
they should but nothing can be pinged. BTW, ifconfig
reveals the loopback device as well as ppp0.
Any dialup hackers out there?
