Sounds good, but as I've successfully avoided both PPP and PPPoE for
well over ten years now, I have no way to completely test, a diff
would be nice.

Yes, I can confirm that. I too got bitten by it before and I was considering
proposing a patch for upgradeXX.html, but I got sidetracked.

Subject: note for faq, maybe

if you use pppoe(4) for internet, and want to do a remote
update from 4.2 to 4.3, over said pppoe(4) link, then the
normal update procedure will not work, because the 4.3
kernel and the 4.2 ifconfig binary can not work together.

after rebooting the new 4.3 bsd kernel, the network will
not be configure and you will walk/drive to the system (just
like I did today).

so, brefore rebooting to 4.3, at least unpack the 4.3 ifconfig
binary from base43.tgz
