Correct on my part at least. One very good reason for not knowing is that the "default" install disk says nothing about Gnome. If it said "-gnome-CD-1.iso" the same way you've mentioned the -kde and -xfce disks, then it would be one more clue for those of us who need a clue.

This doesn't help the netinstall disk, unfortunately.

But the NetInstall disk doesn't suffer from the fault that I was told was the reason for the Gnome/Kde/Xfce install CDs: Lack of space for all on one CD.

So the netinstall version of tasksel could very well have 10 different options for "desktop" and get along perfectly well.

Yep. And also that tasksel doesn't mention Gnome. It's nice to have a fast default, but it would be nice to know what that default is ahead of time.

Do you need help?
