I got the Gentoo install CD and installed the stage 3 tarball. The
reboot went fine and I can log in purely console mode. I have only a
dialup internet connection but I cannot connect to the internet via the
dialup on Gentoo. I did emerge 2 files (that emerge -s pppconfig suggested);
pppconfig-2.3.9 and dialog-1.0-20040731.orig.tar.gz. When I run
pppconfig as root and click on "Create a connection", I get the error
message:
Internal error: no such thing as *** err [lib/liblow.c(329)]:
/dev/gpmctl: No such file or directory Create, at
/usr/sbin/pppconfig.real line 555.
I don't understand what the error message means. I tried to use MAKEDEV
to create /dev/gpmctl but it said it didn't know how to make it.
I can't make much progress with the install until I get the dialup modem
working.
Thanks for any help
Jerry
