instructions should be described below as special instructions.

Special Install Instructions:

have to run the following commands to enable ppp to 
start correctly:

	root> add_drv ipdcm
	root> add_drv ipdptp
	root> add_drv ipd

 	3. install the patch and 
 	4. report the modifications in the new modem file.
