A section in the appendix on automating the installation using preseeding discusses the preseed configuration file.
For package selection the following example is given:
#tasksel tasksel/first multiselect standard, web-server
# If the desktop task is selected, install the kde and xfce desktops
# instead of the default gnome desktop.
#tasksel tasksel/desktop multiselect kde, xfce
I can seem to find any information about tasksel/first and multiselect.
What are the functions of these two parameters?
