Re: dselect Install



well as far as i know dselect will start out where it last left off and
finish intalling the rest of the 130 Megs, i'm not sure if it has
installed these packages yet or not, i would guess not. if you are using
apt mehtod of getting your debs then they will be downloaded to
/var/cache/apt/archives/ the executables will be installed i various
places on your system as well as the config files. look in /bin /sbin
/usr/bin /usr/sbin and more
