Whether or not they're necessary, I *think* I posted the standard contents for someone selecting contrib non-free at installation time. Standard, not minimal, which in the circumstances seemed appropriate. And certainly better than trying to recover from a system crash by dist-upgrading 126 packages with 8 extra source lists being consulted. The priority being to get apt/dpkg back up on its feet, official source lists will be safe here (and saves having to add them at a later date for whatever purpose).
