Well, I can't imagine the necessary dial up software not being in the base file, but you can always dl it to an exchange partition and install it from there jik.... AFAIK a kernel is a kernel is a kernel....I compiled my own for my beige g3 (after the install), but I can't see a situation in which the kernel you have working for linuxppc(a recent version) wouldn't work for debianppc... As far as the install goes, make sure you keep your modules (and sysmap if you are using it) around, because you are going to need it (lots of annoying error messages and errors if you don't install it)....that was my biggest problem HTH --Nelson Abramson -- Shouldn't people be arrested and persecuted for engaging in their constitutional rights? http://www.opendvd.org
