One of the error messages that you supplied said that XF86Config was not
created.  When dselect tries to configure xbase, it is trying to create
/etc/X11/XF86Config, and it appears to be failing on your system.  So you
don't have an XF86Config file yet.  dselect runs some graphical X
configuration program when it tries to configure xbase, but you can also
configure X by running the command xf86config, which walks you through a
bunch of questions about your mouse, monitor, card, etc.  You might give
it a shot.
