Hi,
I'm trying to install Etch and everything goes fine until it tries to
install tasksel. It then gets to "configuring tasksel" and never
finishes. This happens with the net-install, the business-card
installer and the official CD install. Does anyone have any ideas
how I might fix this?
Thanks,

So this morning I made certain that apt wouldn't remove anything this
time, and everything looked fine. It seemed that Sid had gotten over
the initial "OHMYGOD" that happens after a stable is released.
There were lots of KDE updates again, so I closed X and did the update
