How to add the missing PPP chat to Coyote 2.x

What do you will need ?

- A WORKING Coyote Linux 2.x floppy
- The chat binary package (Download it here)

How to install:

1 - Download the chat.tgz file and copy it to your existing Coyote boot floppy.
Note: If you're using a Linux system to make these changes, you can use any text editor to make the following changes, rather than mounting the floppy in your Coyote system.
2 - Boot the machine into Coyote, login as root, and Quit from the menu [Q]
3 - Type: mount /dev/boot /mnt [Enter] Ignore the error message about Minix file systems.
4 - Type: edit /mnt/packages [Enter]
5 - If this is the first package you've added, this file will be empty. Add one line with the new package name: chat [Enter]
6 - Close the editor [Ctrl+Q] and save the file [Y]
7 - Type: umount /mnt [Enter] (Note the spelling: umount, not unmount.)
8 - Reboot your Coyote box. Do not use the menu option to write configuration changes to the floppy.
