+
+    Configuring dash
+    ----------------
+    
+    The system shell is the default command interpreter for shell scripts.
+    
+    Using dash as the system shell will improve the system's overall performance. It
+    does not alter the shell presented to interactive users.
+    
+    Use dash as the default system shell (/bin/sh)? yes
+
+Automate.
+
+    Configuring libpam-runtime
+    --------------------------
+    
+    Pluggable Authentication Modules (PAM) determine how authentication, 
+    authorization, and password changing are handled on the system, as well as 
+    allowing configuration of additional actions to take when starting user 
+    sessions.
+    
+    Some PAM module packages provide profiles that can be used to automatically 
+    adjust the behavior of all PAM-using applications on the system.  Please 
+    indicate which of these behaviors you wish to enable.
+    
+      1. Unix authentication
