Thanks Ray. I knew it really didn't stand for vulgarity. Just releasing steam from pulling out all my hair!
I'll dive deeper into Kenneth's image and see what I can come up with.

Not unless you find irresistable the gratuitous use of vulgarity. In fact, it stands for "Not Found" ... in other words, the loader cannot find the package ppp.lrp on what it believes to be its source filesystem for packages. >I want to change my current LEAF router to use PPPoE instead of the DHCP >client it now is.

Charles was kind enough >to compile in the DOC for me but now I also need it with PPP. ppp can be compiled as a module. so you don't actually need a new kernel, just a new module (or two - I forget) for yours. Not knowing what kernel version Charles custom compiled for you, I can't readily suggest a source for its ppp modules. >Is there a How-To that will also tell me what to change so I can use >DSL. I've seen some custom ones out there but they don't help me much. >They left me kinda pulling my hair out. I doubt there is one. The conventional answer has long been -- use Kenneth Hadley's customized LEAF variant, since he got it right. Even with your DoC special needs, you might find it helpful to look at Ken's floppy and see if it helps you do the needed customizing (or, perhaps better, if you can combine your custom kernel and DoC load source with his mature PPPoE setup). -- -----------------------------------------------"Never tell me the odds!"-------------- Ray Olszewski -- Han Solo Palo Alto, California, USA [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------- _______________________________________________________________ Don't miss the 2002 Sprint PCS Application Developer's Conference August 25-28 in Las Vegas -- http://devcon.sprintpcs.com/adp/index.cfm ------------------------------------------------------------------------ leaf-user mailing list: [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-user SR FAQ: http://leaf-project.org/pub/doc/docmanager/docid_1891.html _______________________________________________________________ Don't miss the 2002 Sprint PCS Application Developer's Conference August 25-28 in Las Vegas -- http://devcon.sprintpcs.com/adp/index.cfm ------------------------------------------------------------------------ leaf-user mailing list: [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-user SR FAQ: http://leaf-project.org/pub/doc/docmanager/docid_1891.html
