hi joey: Tasksel is working perfectly after doing what you have said. But my problem is tasksel is not working from the debian installer menu. I am trying to figure out from many days from now but couldnot find the problem. I have pkgsel udeb and tasksel udeb in my pool but don't know what is going on.
