I guess your Internet access works via PPPOE, this would mean you need a complete base installation before you can set up the PPPOE connection. The .debs needed for a base installation are the same as the ones included on the 100 MB "netinst" installer ISO. A while ago I wrote a script which creates a minimal partial mirror sufficient for a base installation, available from the d-i SVN: http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/d-i/trunk/scripts/testmirror?op=file&rev=0&sc=0 Thiemo -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
