After installation of the base system, log in as root.  Then run the
program "dselect".  Press 'S' to select packages.  Hit the space bar
to get rid of the splash screen, (or read it.)  Then hit '/' do to a
search.  Type in 'xserver' to do a search for xservers that my work
for you.  You can repeat the last search with '\'.  When you find what
you want, hit '+' to select it.  Do something similar and search for
gnome.

Hit enter to return to the main menu.  Select install, and hopefully
everything will install for you.

There's some documentation out there that you should read,
unfortunately, I don't have any link handy for you.  I'm also assuming
that your new to debian.  If not, please give more information about
what you are doing.
