Re: installing with the debian installer and selecting pam profiles and gdm3 not able to login using the keyboard

["Nick Gawronski" <nick@nickgawronski.com>]

Hi, Well it is not once the system is installed about the numberd choices 
but I did also find after I did just a standard system still on low priority 
during the installation and after the base system is installed chrooting 
into the target system and running dpkg-reconfigure debconf and selecting 
low then leaving the chroot and going back to the installer and finishing 
the installation once the installation finishes and I run tasksel and select 
graphical desktop and other options like file and print server this same 
choice comes up using the dialog interface so I use space but no matter what 
options are selected it still won't continue.  I had to reboot as removing 
files in /var/lock would not fix the issues and ran dpkg --configure -a and 
just selected unix authentication worked but not on the initial installation 
or the first run of tasksel after the installation.  Nick Gawronski
