If the package which you had asked to install is there on the other CD than
it will ask you for that CD. Why don't you label the CD's ? If you put the
wrong CD it will again prompt you to put the correct one. Than you are sure
that is the correct CD. Immediatly label it.

I am not comfortable with deselect. Prefer to use apt-get.

To know the total size of hard disk inclusive of Non-Linux and
non-formatted partitions, as root do:

     #echo p | fdisk /dev/hdX 2> /dev/null 
     (where X is a, b, c etc)
OR   #fdisk -l (this will list all drives together)
