How about add one question: "Automatically start all daemons: [Y/n]" If they answer yes, then no questions. If they answer no, ask as many questions as you want. :) Of course, the downside of this particular question is ... not *all* daemons should be automatically started. Some require configuration before being started. Perhaps a change of wording would improve my question. fwiw, $.02. -- Seth Arnold | http://www.willamette.edu/~sarnold/ Hate spam?
