Actually, I rather like your idea. There could be a notice that the system is partially installed, together with a segmented advice, very roughly along the lines of: Partial installation detected. * If you are scared of the command line, just restart the installation. * If you are not scared or if you have spent a lot of resources (download time, data charges) that you would not like to see wasted, run "dpkg --whatever" to get to a sane state and then "tasksel" to continue installation. -- Cheers, Thiemo -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-boot-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
