Thanks Yan.

I just tried putting all the packages in the Prc (suggested) list in a
remove-packages list, to find that the install no longer works, which I
think is what Uwe was telling me a couple of posts ago.

To me suggested means optional, but it obviously doesn't in this case.

The first package that failed to install was grub, which said that it
needed /bin/sh, which is provided by bash, which is in the required
list. Bash needs readline which is in the suggested list, so bash
didn't install. I got into the same loop with the kernel-default
package. Either I am missing something here or the base pattern
definition is badly broken.

Does anyone have a <remove-packages> list for the base pattern that they
can share? I want to start with the smallest possible install.

Thanks

Mike
