As was already mentioned, for pppoe one has to get the eth interface up
with /sbin/ifconfig eth0 up. The question is how to overide the installer
intentions
to set the IP and the other parameters for the eth interface.
I hardly remember how to use the installer. What comes to mind is:
1) Google.
2) Searching the debian-boot archive.
3) Asking on debian-boot.
4) During the installation, activating a shell, overiding what the installer
did and
bringing the interafce up by yourself.
