|   Hmmm.  Weird.  I have heard similar reports before, but a work-around
|   was always to configure the modem as com1 (sio0), after which stuff
|   just worked.  Are you sure on that one?  Is your modem even (sioxx)
|   probed at startup time?

thanx a lot to you (and all the others) for good advice. I found that 
entering "term" and writing "~p" worked, and most of the distribution was
successfully downloaded. then, suddenly, the PPP client lost connection,
and I was not able to get it up running again no matter what I did. really
weird. I'm going on my christmas holiday tomorrow (sunday) and I really 
had to have my machine up running as to receive mail when I'm away etc. so
I put the backup back in. I'll try again in january, I promise. ;-)

merry Xmas,
