Maybe your release is differnet but my KPPP dialer requires setting the
COM port to tty/S0 which corresponds to COM 1 my external serial port.
All releases of Linux I'veplayed with required this either from the

After booting from the CD I merely answered knoppix lang=us.
I also used the dialog box as I too failed with the setup wizard option.

You just name the account, select the "device" for COM port ( in my

But the setup Wizard craps out here as well.
Try the dialog box option and perhaps you'll have better luck?
