Packages Page Instructions
========================================================================

The Cubic Packages Page lists all packages installed in your customized Linux file system. The packages with a check mark next to them are flagged to be automatically removed by the "Ubiquity live CD installer".

Only packages that are checked will be removed once the OS has been installed. If you do not want Ubiquity to remove a package, after installing your customized Linux system, simply un-check that package.

Note that all packages listed will be still available when you boot into the Live environment using the customized ISO.

If your installer supports both Typical and Minimal installs, you will see two columns with check boxes. When you select a package to be removed for a Typical install, the package will automatically be removed for a Minimal install as well.

If your installer does not support Minimal installs, you will see one column with check boxes for a Typical install. Be careful when selecting packages for removal, because additional dependent packages may also be removed, and these will not be indicated in the list.

It's a good idea to just accept the recommended defaults on this page.
