Hi Folks,

Thanks to eveyone who came up with ideas on my errors while installing 
Mozilla. (Being a newbie, I didnt think to just use "apt-get install 
mozilla"!)

Okay here's my new problem, I repartitioned my hard drive and 
reinstalled debian completely. Now I've just got the basic debian 
packages, because I installed from floppy.

When I run tasksel, I get an error message

No task packages found on this system. Did you update your available file?

I looked at my /var/lib/dpkg/available file and did not see any packages 
with a "task-*" in the package details. According to some documentation 
I read on tasksel, it is looking for the "task-*" string to add packages 
to the task list -- is this right?

I fixed this about a week ago by editing a file, using suggestions I 
found from someone submitting a bug report / complaint to debian 
developers about this issue. But now I can't find the guy's posting!

Any ideas? I've been using google extensively but just can't dig up the 
necessary fix.

thanks in advance!
Gale Stafford
