as far as i know, pppoe is not included on the gentoo |
| 5 |
installer. i used a version of ppp from: |
| 6 |
http://big.uwaterloo.ca/~mostrows/ |
| 7 |
|
| 8 |
and you can get pppoe from: |
| 9 |
http://www.roaringpenguin.com/pppoe/ |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
burn them to a disk |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
here are some instructions that worked for me... |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
(before doing anything) |
| 16 |
modprobe ppp_generic (if you need to) |
| 17 |
modprobe (yr_eth_card) |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
(after setting up filesystems and building the archive on the installer) |
| 21 |
have pppoe and ppp on a cd ready to be copied over. |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
from the outside shell: |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
mount /dev/cdroms/cdrom0 /mnt/cdrom -o ro -t iso9660 |
| 26 |
mkdir /mnt/gentoo/usr/local/pppoe |
| 27 |
cp /mnt/cdrom/ppp241pp.tgz /mnt/gentoo/usr/local/pppoe/ |
| 28 |
((same for rp-pppoe)) |
| 29 |
chroot /mnt/gentoo /bin/bash |
| 30 |
env-update |
| 31 |
source /etc/profile |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
mknod /dev/ppp c 108 0 |
| 34 |
chmod 600 /dev/ppp |
| 35 |
cd /usr/local/pppoe/ |
| 36 |
tar -zvxf ppp-241-p.gz |
| 37 |
((install ppp )) |
| 38 |
|
| 39 |
unpack rp-pppoe ./go |
| 40 |
follow setup instructions... |
| 41 |
|
| 42 |
(exit) |
| 43 |
ifconfig eth0 up (from exited screen) |
| 44 |
(chroot back in) |
| 45 |
adsl-start (from shell) |
| 46 |
|
| 47 |
exit |
| 48 |
try ping. if it works... |
| 49 |
|
| 50 |
reenter. then yr ready for emerge action! |
| 51 |
|
| 52 |
|
| 53 |
good luck, |
