How to preseed install via pppoe (for A-DSL)?

Hello!

I am trying to create a customized install cd (based on ubuntu-7.10 alternate install cd).

Everything works as desired so far. Just one problem remains: On the installed box, d-i needs to run "pppoeconfig eth1" before it configures apt-sources. Without this, apt configuration fails because no repositories are available.

I have seen that ppp, pppoe and pppoeconfig packages are already contained on the alternate cd. Thus the only missing thing seems to be to run

    dpkg -i /cdrom/pool/p/ppp* && pppoeconfig eth1

at the right time just before apt-repositories are configured. It seems that preseed/early_command is much too early and preseed/late_command is too late. Where would the proper place be to hook this command?

Anybody already done this? Any hints?
