It looks as though some packages didn't get downloaded during the "Get" phase. The messages should indicate which ones. Rerun dselect "Install" a few times to see if they come across, if not, you can change your sources.list to go to a different source site and try again. When you change your /etc/apt/sources.list is this situation, run apt-get update to make sure all is well before going back into dselect to run Install. jc -- Jeff Coppock Systems Engineer Diggin' Debian Admin and User
