Is there any way to select what packages I want to install during installation in Ubuntu?

It would be lot easier to keep system under control if I could install minimal system first and then add new packages after rather than installing everything first and then removing what I don't want/need.

It seems that this might not be possible with Ubunut or at least I haven't found a way.

You could look at doing a minimal install or bare-bones install.

Thanks. This seems to be what I was looking for.
