Absolute best thing to do: Remove all the garbage about XWindows right off the
bat.  For that machine, XWin will be a waste.

Second thing is to choose packages individually. When going through the list,
decide if you think it's important or not.  If it is, you'll find out later,
and can install it later.

Good spots to look though would be in the howto's, under NET-3, Firewall, and
IPChains.
