As the debian installer guide indicates, you need to pass the right parameters
on boot:
Please try a pure debian installer image to avoid possible issues originating in Ubuntu (although I know Colin doesn't want to diverge too much from the Debian code base). >> Becasue of this possible interference with preseeding I asked you to try a >> vanilla image and see if you can configure PPPoE with such an image. > > With the original install cd, ppp-udeb is not started up at all.

Please read the manual.
