For various reasons, we've decided not to do that.

The way to do this is to use aptitude instead of tasksel.

The installer should detect most hardware, and it installs discover, which will detect most sound hardware and so on after reboot. There is a modconf package you can install and run on the installed system, and probably other ways to configure hardware that this process misses. -- see shy jo
