They're installed (or at least loaded into the minimal kernel) when I launch the Debian Installer. Precisely: from http://www.us.debian.org/CD/netinst/ I downloaded the file debian-7.8.0-i386-netinst.iso and installed Debian with it, everything fine. Now I want to install the remaining packages via internet, but to connect to it I need ppp and the `pon' command, which is `not found'.
