Mårten,
Since I was the one who assembled the working qadsl package (for floppyfw)
to use with Telia ADSL, I though that I should jump in to this discussion
and clear things up a bit.

1) Telia ADSL does *not* use pppoe.
2) DHCP should be used for getting IP address from the ISP.
3) qADSL should be used to automatically log in to the Telia login server
(and keep connection up).

I have only tried this qADSL package with the stable version of Floppyfw
(1.0.12.3). So this is what you have to do:

1) Grab the image and write it to a floppy using either rawrite or "dd":
http://www.zelow.no/floppyfw/download/floppyfw-1.0.12.3.img

2) Download qADSL package for floppyfw:
http://www.zelow.no/floppyfw/download/packages/qadsl/
Put both files (qadsl.bz2, post-qadsl.ini) in the /packages directory on the
floppy.

3) Edit folowing variables in your /config:
OUTSIDE_IP=DHCP

USER_IDENT=<your_telia_login_name>
USER_PASSWORD=<your_telia_password>

DHCP_DAEMON=y
(if you want DHCP server on your internal network)

That should be all!
HTH,
Mikael
