Bug#239386: #239386: Allows to deselect unnecessary modules but tries to use them later

Hello Joey,

You have marked this bug as done with 'fixed by cdebconf's seen flag handling 
being fixed'.
I have retested this (20040404 i386 100MB Netinst CD) and the behavior is now 
different, but IMHO not really fixed.

After I have deselected modules for the 1st hardware detection, I am now given 
a new list for the 2nd hw detection. In this list the previously deselected 
modules are again presented and _selected_ by default.
If I manually deselect them, no problems. But if I just continue, the red 
screens still appear.

I think either the previously deselected modules should be not be included in 
later lists or should be deselected by default.

Hope this helps,

Frans Pop

P.S. I have not yet reopened the bug report. Maybe you'll think I'm 
nitpicking :-)
