Uhm, why are you doing this in single user mode? As Ken noted, these
scripts want /proc around. Also, single-user mode is defined as a
mode where the system is partially up for one user.  Specifically,
things like _networking_ are not necessarily up!

Try it again in multi-user mode (logged in as root). Don't mind the
"don't log in as root" message if you're at the console (either
serial or keyboard).

Ken mentioned that these scripts are not great for permenant dial-ups.
Though they mightn't be designed for it, I think they would work. The
one thing they wouldn't do is some sort of error handling if the
modem line goes down. They should be fine for just dialing up from
home. That's what I use them for.

Take care,
