Hi.
MDK has the ability to configure network connection in instalation 
program. What i have see it can configure DSL, ISDN, modem connection.

In Poland there is *very* popular connection - Ericsson Home Internet 
Solution (HIS). It uses simple AT terminal connected to COM port. 
Configuration is very easy

/etc/ppp/peers/HIS  :
lock
noauth
modem
crtscts
nodeflate
nobsdcomp
user refuse
remotename his
defaultroute

/etc/ppp/pap-secrets :
refuse         his        [pass]          217.96.134.160

plus some entries in /etc/resolv.conf

To connect:  pppd /dev/ttyS0 115200 call HIS

Thats all. Butt i think no body in Europe has heard about that kind of 
connection (115.2kbps) so network configuration in MDK installation program 
is not working with that.

Can be that connection added so installation program can properly configure 
it ?

PS. Of course i can add that my self, butt not to init.d/internet or 
init.d/network, it is too complicated :/ Now i just add that line pppd 
/dev/ttyS0 115200 call his to init.c/internet in start function butt that is 
workaround.
