since i saved the output from "dpkg --get-selections" from the previous install before reformatting the hard drive, i understood that i could do a bare-bones install, then use "dpkg --set-selections" to reproduce the package selection and install.
so, just for fun, i deselected every selection in the package groups list, and now i'm being asked about where i want to install LILO. why? if you choose to do a minimal install, is grub somehow considered too fancy or optional? that's just weird. would selecting one of those choices give me the grub option back again? rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.
