As you might have noticed there is more than one iso image. You didn't mention which one you are using, so I assume its the network install image or the normal CD image. They are used to install a minimal system and can't contain all packages - they are way too small for that. You could - for example - use the first blueray (bd) image or the 16BG usb stick image instead. Btw, this behaviour did not change. open-vm-tools is part of the "contrib" part of Debian as it needs a proprietary environment to work with. Software from that won't be on the netinstall image. -- Bernd Zeimetz Debian GNU/Linux Developer http://bzed.de http://www.debian.org GPG Fingerprint: ECA1 E3F2 8E11 2432 D485 DD95 EB36 171A 6FF9 435F
