your config looks not correct, I remember there should be a line like |
| 19 |
something ( "adsl") in it, my config contains no more than three lines. |
| 20 |
we might have different version though, just follow the gentoo guide |
| 21 |
regarding to this topic, it really make sense. |

There are no boot error msgs, the "start eth0" line returns "ok" |

I don't exactly know how that works, wrong parameters, I think. |

I think you must already have chosen the PPPOE option while compile the |
| 41 |
kernel, otherwise, the previous version might not work properly either, |
| 42 |
Nevertheless, you may check option within that warning in your kernel config |
| 43 |
file to make sure. |

There's nothing useful on the Forum & I've exhausted my own thoughts: |
