The policy around expert mode is that it should not change the installation behaviour in itself. Answering default to extra questions in expert mode should result in the same installation as normal ones. As dash already as a debconf questions, the implementation of such behaviour is pretty straightforward: d-i should install dash. If dash is promoted as part of the base system, it will be installed without any changes from the d-i team. The other candidate that would trigger such installation that I can think of is the "standard" task of tasksel. I think I would object any implementation that would require more specific changes in d-i itself. Cheers, -- Jérémy Bobbio .''`. [EMAIL PROTECTED] : :Ⓐ : # apt-get install anarchism `. `'` `-
