All my etch installs with d-i [1][2] have prompted me to install packages other than "standard" priority. [1] Except for the ones from the official KDE CD image which installed KDE by default. [2] This doesn't include debootstrapping, either from a LiveCD or another Linux distro, which is actually my preferred method. Based on http://www.debian.org/News/2007/20070408, Gnome is the default desktop for Etch, but I've never had it installed for me without prompting. -- Boyd Stephen Smith Jr. ,= ,-_-. =. bss03@volumehost.net ((_/)o o(\_)) ICQ: 514984 YM/AIM: DaTwinkDaddy `-'(. .)`-' http://iguanasuicide.org/ \_/
