Hi,

Made a boot floppy of 2.1.5 -RELEASE to show my buddy how cool FreeBSD is!
When I selected FTP install and COM 2 (/dev/cuaa1) then went to iij-ppp
the modem would not respond to "at". I then did a "show modem" and found
the device set to COM 1 (/dev/cuaa0). No amount of hacking with the option
selections or "set device" in iij-ppp would work to get the modem on-line
even when "show modem" displayed /dev/cuaa1. I took the disk back home and
tried it on my system with the same results. I even FTP'ed a new boot.flp
but nothing seems to work. My old 2.1 boot floppy works but a 2.2 -SNAP
boot floppy fails too. 

Any ideas??
