debian-unstable is just another version of debian ... the unstable one.
You can use pppoeconf fine with debian-stable, which is what Lindows is based on.
Yes, you need an Internet connection before you can do
apt-get update
apt-get install pppoeconf
pppoeconf
which is why I gave you the manual instructions as well. With the manual method, not relying on pppoeconf, you can get connected to the Internet without first needing a dialup/shared LAN Internet connection first.
Yeah, Lindows dropped the ball on that one. I've been bitchin' at them for that since Lindows 1.3. I do hope they get it right for the release version. It's not like including PPPoE setup in the install was unusual. All the other major distis do it.
