Debian netinst pppoe problems


The network installation for Debian doesn't seem to support a PPPoE connection. I've read some stuff about going into a 'virtual console' or 'second console' on the second boot and calling pppoeconf, but I have no idea how to do that. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Umh.. not sure but you can try:

ALT+F1,
ALT+F2,
ALT+F3,
ALT+F4,
ALT+F5,
ALT+F6.

And then try pppoeconf, if that doesn't work, sorry.
