On the first run, just after installing the boot floppies, you are given a choice of preselecting packages "Home-box", "developement box" etc. This is a cludge, so it gets deleted after the first run. The UI also has some "quirks". You can't go back one screen. MBC> The documentation of dselect is somewhat cryptic and difficult to MBC> understand. Did you read ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/dists/stable/main/disks-i386/current/dselect.beginner.html ?

Then just edit /etc/lilo.conf after installation and run lilo. Or just create a bootable floppy during installation. Customize /etc/lilo.conf to your needs and run lilo. Ciao, Martin
