Hello
This is my first post to this list. I started to think that it would nice to try to install Gentoo linux at home and start to learn how gentoo works. I downloaded the lastest universal livecd, booted with the parameters ¨gentoo nodhcp¨ (as I use pppoe with my isp) pressed f2 and choose the numbers for a finnish keyboard. I brought up the ethernet interface with ¨ifconfig eth0 up¨ and ran adsl-setup and answered all the questions correctly. Unfortunately, when I ran adsl-start the connection did not come up - I include the results of ¨DEBUG=1 adsl-start¨ below. The strange thing is that I have been running the following OS's on this very machine and using pppoe to connect to the internet: SuSE 9.1 Knoppix 3.7 W2K Also I have an old gentoo livecd, (which I downloaded many moons ago) and have no problems getting my internet connection up with it. I suppose I am looking for some tips and wondering if anyone knows of any problems with gentoo's pppoe setup. I saved copies of the contents of /etc/ppp when using the lastest CD and when using the old CD and have to say that they were pretty much the same. Anyway, hope someone out there can be of help. I suppose I could continue to install gentoo by coping files from the universal live CD or booting with the old livecd or even another OS such as knoppix but I wanted to sort out this problem with rp-pppoe before I continue just in case I bump into it at a later stage. Thx in advance!!! t-ir The output of DEBUG=1 adsl-start follows: --------------------------------------------- * The following section contains information about your system Thu Jan 27 16:01:31 GMT 2005 Output of uname -a Linux livecd 2.6.9-gentoo-r1 #1 SMP Thu Nov 25 03:43:53 UTC 2004 i686 Pentium III (Coppermine) GenuineIntel GNU/Linux --------------------------------------------- * The following section contains information about your network * interfaces.
