Mmm, you may try to 'cancel', 'go back' and UNcheck desktop. (I fear that
you get "there are allready files installed" warnings/errors )

If you restart for the begining, then install also with the desktop
task, it gives you booting system (without non-working X-server),
which means you have to re-install everything while you are install the
X-server.
