[Jaunty] Installation over pppoe no longer works

[Josef Wolf]

Hello,

Installing over a PPPoE-line (ADSL) no longer works in Jaunty.  It
has worked since Feisty (AFAIR) and even worked in jaunty-beta, but
does no longer work in jaunty-final.

To initiate installation over pppoe, I add "modules=ppp-udeb" to
the kernel command line.  This has worked in the previous releases
up to jaunty-beta.

When I add "priority=low" to kernel command line, the ppp menu is not
even offered in the main menu.

The logfile (relevant snippets attached below) confirms that
anna/choose_modules contains the ppp-udeb package.  Why is this
package not running?

Any ideas?
