Same problem (lack of kernel support for ppp) using ext2 BL3.50 (the beta 
version).  BL3.40 ext2 works with the lucent modem when I chroot there 
after inserting the modules in 3.50 (but then 3.50 will not telnet using 
this connection, Unknown host, though I replaced the DNS numbers).

My disk2 was perfect.  I copied the modules from ext2 BL3.40 to 3.50.
Same pppd and eznet.  Same kernel and modules.  Can someone repeat this 
problem with a lucent modem?

I copied the modules directly from hd this time.
Sorry I did not test this before the FD version was made.

Same kernel and modules that work in BL3.40 or BL2 when I chroot or boot 
directly to them.
