A couple of those led me to disable recommends completely. It seems
I'm a freak monster or sometning ;-@


Is there a way to totally disable recommends when installing Debian?
I wish to set up a machine for experimenting to find out what I
really want. Long long term I am considering using debootstrap to
install a extremely customized system.


I have this in the file /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/95no-recommends:

   APT::Install-Recommends no:


If I understand correctly, I need to add
 /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/95no-recommends to the ISO of the installer's DVD1.

TIA
