[I]nstall Install and upgrade wanted packages. or apt-get dselect-install > Edit the changes Reselect 2. [S]elect Request which packages you want on your system. > Reverse all the marks and start over I'm you can't do that if you alread exit select menu to main menu. But if you are still in select menu. "X" would be your friend (note capital X) > Exit without altering the database Isn't this the same thing as above?
