Have never been able to get the install configuration of my adsl/pppoe/earthlink
acccount to work. My choice to start the connection at boot is not implemented
and adsl-start, after login, does not work. My usual workaround is to run
adsl-setup after boot [with the identical values entered] and add adsl-start to
rc.local. With a fresh install of beta2, using only /home from a previous
install, the boot time connection is successfully being made but only after
running adsl-setup after logging in [adsl-start in rc.local is not needed].
Below are some boot messages and attached is a text file containing, hopefully,
pertinent sections of report.bug:
