Yes. Upgrade pppd to the latest. An upgrade of modutils wouldn't go
astray either (if you're into those module thingies)

Thanks, I'll do that.  In the mean time I gave it a go and upon reboot, the system was unable to mount my root partition and asked me to provide a correct one at the "root=".  It is set root=/dev/hda6 but it won't recognise it for some reason?  Anyone come across this before or can hazzard a guess at what I should look at?
