Use dselect to find package. apt-get is useful if you know exactly what to install. From root: # dselect ... follow menu Also to set up basic set up, use tasksel. # dselect update # tasksel As for what you are looking for: Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold | Status=Not/Installed/Config-files/Unpacked/Failed-config/Half-installed |/ Err?=(none)/Hold/Reinst-required/X=both-problems (Status,Err: uppercase=bad) ||/ Name Version Description +++-==============-==============-============================================ un nfs-client <none> (no description available) ii nfs-common 1.0-2 NFS support files common to client and serve ii nfs-kernel-ser 1.0-2 Kernel NFS server support pn nfs-server <none> (no description available) pn nfs-user-serve <none> (no description available) pn nfsboot <none> (no description available) pn nfsbooted <none> (no description available) So I have nfs-common and nfs-kernel-server installed on my woody.
