Figure 4-20. Package selection screen for Mandrake 10.

Checks are shown by the package groups Mandrake plans to install. You can check additional groups or uncheck groups. For instance, if you are new to Linux, you might want to check the GNOME desktop so Mandrake will install both KDE and GNOME, allowing you to try both before you decide which you prefer to use.

A line at the bottom shows you the “Total size” of the packages checked so that you can be sure you have enough disk space available.
