As you probably know (from /usr/share/doc/rp-pppoe-3.5/HOW-TO-CONNECT):
DO NOT assign an IP address to the Ethernet card. DO NOT configure the
card to come up at boot time.
But installer hapilly assigns IP (not sure why it has assigned 10.0.0.x in
my case, maybe tried some remote cups printer or something) and at the
same time tries to run pppoe over the same eth0 and this fails of cource.

Hmm, I think you should not be able to peform PAP authentification without
pap-secrets, maybe there is something different with your ADSL. My
/etc/ppp/pap-secrets looks like:
'22429848' * 'secret' *
"[EMAIL PROTECTED]" * "secret"
The first entry added by Mandrake GUI dsl pppoe config tool, the second by dsl-setup.

It is a clean beta4 install, I have tried to create dsl connection
during install and then tried again to run GUI setup after installation.
