I think you have just seen the task-xyz packages. Task-packages are just meta-packages. If you have added all CDs to apt (this should be done while the installation, but you can do it afterwards with apt-cdrom, too). You can install single packages with "apt-get install foo". Searching can be done with "apt-cache search regexFoo". -- Thomas Guettler Office: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> www.interface-business.de Private:<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://yi.org/guettli
