which is why I said «low priority»:

'critical' only prompts you if the system might break.
           Pick it if you are a newbie, or in a hurry.
'high' is for rather important questions
'medium' is for normal questions
'low' is for control freaks who want to see everything

If you select low, you will have to drink off the fire hose.  Having
low-priority questionsis good, since it makes it easy to make
customized installs with preloaded answers.
