'preinst.sh'? Are you trying to install the standard X11 tarball (from
XFree86.org maybe?), and not the deb packages of X11? Just use
dselect. If you have a CD of Deb 2 , then you'll find the all the deb
X11 packages on the CD. Or use dselect with apt/ftp access method, and
have dselect download the X packages from ftp.debian.org or a mirror.
Just make sure you download from the hamm (or stable) section
(/debian/dists/hamm/) on the ftp site.
