pppoe is ppp over ethernet. It has something to do with DSL. As for the debootstrap error, I have always had bad luck with debootstrap. It *never* worked for me. If you have a hardware synth, the speakup-modified version of Sarge may be easier to get installed. You also may want to file an RFE against the Debian installer to allow for telnet installations like RH/Fedora do. That would make things easier for people who have two computers or someone to help them over the phone but don't have a hardware speech synthesizer. As for the problem of why pppoe won't download, I am really not sure what is causing that one, especially if the ISO is good. Although the debootstrap error in 3.0r1 may be avoidable by simply downloading the larger netinst ISO that includes the base system so that it doesn't have to use debootstrap. Hope I am being helpful, ;-) PRINCE
