Hi all. Searched the archives and checked out the dselect tutorial, but couldn't find a satisfactory answer. I installed Debian 2.1 a couple of days ago, and now want to install the suggested development packages. I get the package list through apt just fine, and was able to download (through dselect) 80MB of the ~130MB I needed. At this point, the connection was reset and the install stopped. So if I run install again, will it re-download the 80 megs? When I run configure, it only lasts a second or two and exits. Does that mean all packages in the 80 megs are now installed and configured? Where do the .deb files get downloaded to? How about the executables?
Alot of questions, so thanks in advance...
