Thanks Ray. I knew it really didn't stand for vulgarity. Just
releasing steam from pulling out all my hair!
I'll dive deeper into Kenneth's image and see what I can come up with.

First let me ask
If I see the message
ppp.lrp (nf!)
Should I assume that means: no f**king good?
Not unless you find irresistable the gratuitous use of vulgarity. In
fact,
it stands for Not Found ... in other words, the loader cannot find the
package ppp.lrp on what it believes to be its source filesystem for
packages.
I want to change my current LEAF router to use PPPoE instead of the
DHCP
client it now is. However, my kernal uses the DOC (flash disk) and
obtaining a kernal with PPP in it won't help. Charles was kind enough
to compile in the DOC for me but now I also need it with PPP.
ppp can be compiled as a module. so you don't actually need a new
kernel,
just a new module (or two - I forget) for yours. Not knowing what kernel
version Charles custom compiled for you, I can't readily suggest a
source
for its ppp modules.
Is there a How-To that will also tell me what to change so I can use
DSL. I've seen some custom ones out there but they don't help me much.
They left me kinda pulling my hair out.
I doubt there is one. The conventional answer has long been -- use
Kenneth
Hadley's customized LEAF variant, since he got it right. Even with your
DoC
special needs, you might find it helpful to look at Ken's floppy and see
if
it helps you do the needed customizing (or, perhaps better, if you can
combine your custom kernel and DoC load source with his mature PPPoE
setup).
