This is performed
using the pppconfig program, which is explained in further detail in the ???Dial-Up PPP
Connections??? section later in this chapter. Keep in mind that the system will try to dial-up
once this step has completed.
If you??™re using a broadband connection that requires PPPoE, press Alt+F2, log in as root,
and run the pppoeconf program.
You can still finish the system installation if you are unable to connect to the Internet at
this time. However, you may later need to manually edit your APT sources mirror list (as
described in the ???Package Management Using APT??? section in this chapter) before all of
the packages that you want are available for easy installation.
Because the Debian CD image included with this book is the network install image, the
CD itself will provide software for installing only a minimal Debian system. You will
need a network connection or other Debian software CDs to install, for example, a full desktop system
or the LAMP and mail servers described in Chapters 24 and 25.
11. Select Yes to enable a network mirror as the source for additional or updated software
packages. Then select a country and a mirror server from the list. You are prompted for
any HTTP proxy configuration, which may be necessary on some corporate or school networks.
