That looks like the installation went well for you. Perhaps my error has 
something to do with me installing to /dev/hda3 instead of /dev/hda1. 
Thanks for looking that up.

Running tasksel that way after reboot should be equivalent to choosing 
those options during installation.

Any improvement on the installation instructions is welcome. It's fine 
to add information about a lightweight installation, either as new 
section on the wiki page or as a separate page (depending on the amount 
of text). Excerpts from syslog would be a bit too much detail, IMO.
