In order to be able to get connected through Alcatel Speedtouch USB you will need to install on your floppy the speedtch.lrp package which will provide the latest (1.2-beta1) driver devlopped by B. Papillaud and alii.
Boot your Bering floppy image. Once the LEAF menu appears get access
to the linux shell by (q)uitting the menu. Edit the syslinux.cfg
file and REPLACE the pump entry by [ppp,speedtch] in the LRP= list of
packages to be loaded at boot. Check the Bering installation
guide to learn how to do that.
Your syslinux.cfg
file will then look like
(adjust to your tastes):
display syslinux.dpy timeout 0 default linux initrd=initrd.lrp init=/linuxrc rw root=/dev/ram0 boot=/dev/fd0u1680:msdos PKGPATH=/dev/fd0u1680 LRP=root,etc,local,modules,iptables,ppp,speedtch,keyboard,shorwall,ulogd,dnscache,weblet
The last two lines ("default linux ... dnscache,weblet")
must be typed as a single one in syslinux.cfg
The speedtch.lrp package is available here. The ppp.lrp package is available on the Bering standard floppy.
