List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: Hi all, Rodney here again. I want to take another stab at installing Slackware 8.0 on a spare computer I have. My question for tonight is: Where do I find information on what packages I should install? Please keep in mind that I am a complete newbie when it comes to Linux. I got through the installation up to the package selection. I don't want to install any graphical things. The computer will be mainly used as a web server, mail server, and occasionally used to surf the net. And I will be the only user of the computer. So I don't think I want any graphical user interfaces. I would appreciate any direction someone could give me as to where I could find this information. Thank you. Rodney
