I'm still a noob at this as well, but I think these would be your steps:
- boot from the LiveCD
- setup adsl with adsl-setup
- chroot into your install (like it says in the handbook)
- emerge -p rp-pppoe (to install rp-pppoe in your installation)
- adsl-setup
- exit the chroot and reboot
It's been sometime since I set up my rp-pppoe client so I'm not sure, but if `esearch pppoe` in your current install does not produce an installed package, this would probably be the way to solve it.
I think what happened is, you missed step 10.d in the Gentoo Handbook. |
