Description

Version 1.1-RELEASE of the Netgate installer has a bug in the way the installer configures mpd_wan.conf when trying to use a PPPoE WAN connection.

As seen in the attached image, /var/etc/mpd_wan.conf calls an up-script at /usr/local/libexec/installer/pfSense-pppoe-linkup. However, this file doesn't exist.

The correct path is at /usr/local/libexec/installer/backend/pfSense-pppoe-linkup.

By correcting the path in my mpd_wan.conf and making the file immutable so the installer couldn't overwrite it, I was then able to progress with the install.
