When I try to install Debian 2.1 (slink) by booting off the rescue disk,
after loading the md driver it freezes up.
I tried booting it on my old 486, and the thing loaded after the above
mentioned driver was something to do with PCI. On my 486 it just gave me
some PCI error, and happily carried
You can do 4 things:
1) Compile a kernel with ppp (see kernel-HOWTO)
2) Do: insmod ppp
3) Do: modprobe ppp
4) Do: modconf (and then add the ppp module)

Recompiling your kernel is not an extreme thing to do, it is actually very
easy (if of course you know how, which is explained very good in the
kernel-HOWTO). I think it is also wise to compile a new kernel after
installation, because the standard kernel is a kernel that works with most

You can't connect using pppconfig. I assume you mean that you are trying
to connect using pon.

Your system does not lack kernel support for PPP. Pppd is easily confused
and often gives
Hi,
first of all you should mention if you use slink or potato. In the
former case it is possible that the kernel does not recognize your new
IDE-interface. You should check the kernel-messages for something
refering to the IDE-interface.
Anyway you should post as much information as possible!

This is probably a very basic question, so apologies in

Hi,
I've been trying to set up a Soundblaster ISA card under Debian. The

with slightly different hardware. I have 4 IDE devices installed, 2
PCI NICs and a PCI ATI graphics card.
I'm using a modular 2.2.13 kernel. If I do the
If you mean installing the base system, then I have done so from a hard disk.
Note that it is recommended that you only install the basesystem from the
harddisk and then install the other stuff from the net.
