Use "apt-get" make sure your /etc/apt/sources.list is pointed to your
cdrom or http depending on where you want to install from. It's good to
do http so you can snag security updates.
Take a look at the man page but to install packages, the short of it is -
# apt-get install package_name
To install security patches -
# apt-get update
# apt-get upgrade
You can search for package names at the web-site. I would try something
like task-gnome* for installing gnome.
