Does the FreeBSD 6.2 installer support a network install over an ethernet
interface
connected to a DSL modem using a PPPoE connection?
I am switching ISPs from a cable-based provider to a DSL-based provider and
would
like to install FreeBSD on an old PC to set it up as a router/firewall for my
home
network. And since this old PC does not have a CD-ROM drive I'd like to a
network
install using PPPoE.
But I haven't been able to find any current information on how to accomplish
this.
There used to be an (unofficial) page by Randy Pratt:
"Installing FreeBSD Using PPPoE":
<http://www.treefort.org/~rpratt/pppoe/article.html>
but it's no longer there.
Any help/advice is appreciated.
Thanks!
