I have installed Linux on my laptop and i have
now to use 'dselect' to install X and others packages. Problem : i can't find my
way and i'm stuck with dselect from the beginning. I've downloaded the file
'Dselect documentation for beginners' from debian.org but it's not very
helpful. (e.g. : when I go to select i can't understand anything from the
different menus and the differents options. For instance, what's the difference
between 'Install from a hard disk partition partion (NOT YET MOUNTED)' and
'Install from a filesystem which is already mounted'. Which one should I pick up
since i've just installed Debian from floppies?)
Basically, I'm looking for :
- a manual which
explains carefully and with examples what to do when using dselect.
- if this is not
available, is it possible to have a few directions about how to install X
Windows with dselect, notably the very first steps -something in plain
english for idiots or retardos. (What i have now on my lap-top computer is plain
Linux. I can't use a CD ROM and can't yet get access to the Internet since I
don't know how to setup my PCMCIA card. For now my priority is to install X
Windows, the Mouse and have some graphical interface to navigate through
Linux).
Thanks for your
help!
