Re: How is it decided what packages go on what CD?

Yes, just after the inclusion of the base & standard system.

If you can give me a file (with a package name per line) giving all the
packages that should go in the first CD, then I'll use it to select which
packages will be used to fill the first CD once the standard &
task-related packages are already included.

In order to work, I may have to disable the auto include of suggested
packages since it is a bit expansive for its checking (for example, if 
it does find a virtual package, then all packages providing it will be
included).
