Not sure what you mean exactly. All these _are_ separate packages. Some are even subdivided (like partman and the bootloader installers) because you don't need all possible bootloaders on all architectures. Here are some links for you: http://packages.debian.org/cgi-bin/search_packages.pl?keywords=netcfg&searchon=names&subword=1&version=unstable&release=all http://packages.debian.org/cgi-bin/search_packages.pl?keywords=partman&searchon=names&subword=1&version=unstable&release=all http://packages.debian.org/unstable/debian-installer/grub-installer http://packages.debian.org/unstable/debian-installer/hw-detect The only issue may be that these components (udebs) are designed to operate in a certain environment, provided by other debian-installer components. So most of the components have dependencies on other (less visible) components. The source for components can of course be found in our SVN repository.
