+2. Update the kernel sources.
+
+The 2.2.8 and later kernels contains the same PPP kernel driver as is
+in this release. In fact the driver in the kernel sources is slightly
+different from the one in this package as it doesn't include the stuff
+which enables the driver in this package to compile in either the 2.0
+or 2.2 kernel environment, but the two are functionally equivalent.
+If you are using a 2.2.8 or later kernel and your kernel is already
+configured for PPP, then you only need to do steps 5 and 6.
+Otherwise, continue at step 3.
+
+If you are using a 2.3 series kernel, use the kernel driver that is in
+the kernel sources. For 2.3.13 and later, this is the new driver (see
+above).
+
+If you are using a kernel earlier than 2.2.8, you can either use the
+driver in this package or upgrade your kernel to the current 2.2.x
+series kernel (2.2.11, as of the release of ppp-2.3.9). If you choose
+to use the driver in this package, you will need a copy of the kernel
+source tree to compile the driver. Issue the command:
