Hi..,
is there a way to select which software package i want include in installation process?
example:
1. I want install ubuntu 8.04 alternate cd. Can I choose which software i want to install?
2. I installed ubuntu server edition. can i just install gnome gui interface with very minimal software inside it? (if i install ubuntu-desktop, it will install everything)

Thanks for any info

1. you can do command line or full install... those are the only options you have from the alternate install cd.

2. you sure can. gnome-core is the package name.
