This was a sysvinit specific problem which was fixed in 208-7 and 208-8 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=749021 See /etc/init.d/udev: make_static_nodes(). /bin/kmod static-nodes --format=tmpfiles --output=/proc/self/fd/1 is supposed to ouput (among others) c /dev/ppp 0600 - - - 108:0 which is then created by the script. If that fails for you, I'd suggest you start debugging the sysv init script by using set -x > b) The booting is very slow. I made some "real" screenshots (please > excuse the flash).

That might be another sysvinit specific issue, namely https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=754987 -- Why is it that all of the instruments seeking intelligent life in the universe are pointed away from Earth?
