"I'm trying to install a minimal Karmic base system with the netboot CD...
Problem is, even when I select no tasks whatsoever, it decides to pull in more
than 120 extra packages including Gnome, OpenOffice, and OpenJDK - basically
the whole Ubuntu/Gnome package. I've tried using the "manual package selection"
option, but that causes the installer to bug out claiming that it can't install
x11-common... Help?"[/Quote]

+ Edit: This also affects the "minimal cd". (here:
+ https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD). Even if you
+ don't select any additional packages at install time (via tasksel), you
+ end up with stuff like open-office.org (without a desktop environment).
