+ <title>Installing &debian; using PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE)</title>
+
+<para>
+
+In some countries PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE) is a common protocol for
+broadband (ADSL or cable) connections to an Internet Service Provider.
+Setting up a network connection using PPPoE is not supported by default
+in the installer, but can be made to work very simply. This section
+explains how.
+
+</para><para>
+
+The PPPoE connection set up during the installation will also be available
+after the reboot into the installed system (see <xref linkend="boot-new"/>).
+
+</para><para>
+
+To have the option of setting up and using PPPoE during the installation,
+you will need to install using one of the CD-ROM/DVD images that are
+available. It is not supported for other installation methods (e.g.
+netboot<phrase condition="supports-floppy-boot"> or floppy</phrase>).
+
+</para><para>
+
+Installing over PPPoE is mostly the same as any other installation. The
+following steps explain the differences.
+
+</para>
+
+<itemizedlist>
+<listitem><para>
+
+Boot the installer with <userinput>modules=ppp-udeb</userinput> as boot
+parameter. This means that at the boot prompt you should enter:
+
+<informalexample><screen>
+install modules=ppp-udeb
+</screen></informalexample>
+
+or, if you prefer using the graphical installer:
+
+<informalexample><screen>
+installgui modules=ppp-udeb
+</screen></informalexample>
+
+This will ensure the component responsible for the setup of PPPoE
+(<classname>ppp-udeb</classname>) will be loaded and run automatically.
+
+</para></listitem>
+<listitem><para>
+
+Follow the regular initial steps of the installation (language,
+country and keyboard selection; the loading of additional installer
+components<footnote>
+
+<para>
+
+The <classname>ppp-udeb</classname> component is loaded as one of
+the additional components in this step. If you want to install at
+medium or low priority (expert mode), you can also manually select
+the <classname>ppp-udeb</classname> instead of entering the
+<quote>modules</quote> parameter at the boot prompt.
+
+</para>
+
+</footnote>).
+
+</para></listitem>
+<listitem><para>
+
+The next step is the detection of network hardware, in order to identify
+any Ethernet cards present in the system.
+
+</para></listitem>
+<listitem><para>
+
+After this the actual setup of PPPoE is started. The installer will probe
+all the detected Ethernet interfaces in an attempt to find a PPPoE
+concentrator (a type of server which handles PPPoE connections).
+
+</para><para>
+
+It is possible that the concentrator will not to be found at the first
+attempt. This can happen occasionally on slow or loaded networks or with
+faulty servers. In most cases a second attempt to detect the concentrator
+will be successful; to retry, select <guimenuitem>Configure and start a
+PPPoE connection</guimenuitem> from the main menu of the installer.
+
+</para></listitem>
+<listitem><para>
+
+After a concentrator is found, the user will be prompted to type the login
+information (the PPPoE username and password).
+
+</para></listitem>
+<listitem><para>
+
+At this point the installer will use the provided information to establish
+the PPPoE connection. If the correct information was provided, the PPPoE
+connection should be configured and the installer should be able to use it
+to connect to the Internet and retrieve packages over it (if needed). If
+the login information is not correct or some error appears, the installer
+will stop, but the configuration can be attempted again by selecting the
+menu entry <guimenuitem>Configure and start a PPPoE connection</guimenuitem>.
