-
-    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
-    
-    (Enter the items you want to select, separated by spaces.)
-    
-    PAM profiles to enable: 1
-
-Automate.
-
-     +---------------------------Configuring grub-pc------------------------------+
-
-Add grub*- somewhere.
-
-      +---------------------ca-certificates configuration------------------------+
-      | Trust new certificates from certificate authorities?                     |
-
-Used to be configured later -- move seeding forward.
