- <title>Installing &debian-gnu; over Parallel Line IP (PLIP)</title>
-
-<para>
-
-This section explains how to install &debian-gnu; on a computer without an
-Ethernet card, but with just a remote gateway computer attached via
-a Null-Modem cable (also called Null-Printer cable). The gateway
-computer should be connected to a network that has a &debian; mirror
-on it (e.g. to the Internet).
-
-</para><para>
-
-In the example in this appendix we will set up a PLIP connection using
-a gateway connected to the Internet over a dial-up connection (ppp0).
-We will use IP addresses 192.168.0.1 and 192.168.0.2 for the PLIP
-interfaces on the target system and the source system respectively
-(these addresses should be unused within your network address space).
-
-</para><para>
-
-The PLIP connection set up during the installation will also be available
-after the reboot into the installed system (see <xref linkend="boot-new"/>).
-
-</para><para>
-
-Before you start, you will need to check the BIOS configuration (IO base
-address and IRQ) for the parallel ports of both the source and target
-systems. The most common values are <literal>io=0x378</literal>,
-<literal>irq=7</literal>.

-Boot the installation media. The installation needs to be run in
-expert mode; enter <userinput>expert</userinput> at the boot prompt.
-If you need to set parameters for kernel modules, you also need to
-do this at the boot prompt. For example, to boot the installer and
-set values for the <quote>io</quote> and <quote>irq</quote> options
-for the parport_pc module, enter the following at the boot prompt:
-
-<informalexample><screen>
-expert parport_pc.io=<replaceable>0x378</replaceable> parport_pc.irq=<replaceable>7</replaceable>
-</screen></informalexample>

-Below are the answers that should be given during various stages of
