How to instruct the installer to show information on a console while installing packages?
(Both when installing the base system and later when running tasksel)
A number of consoles are available during installation. you can get to them by pressing ALT+F2 … F4 keys. I think the one you are interested in is ALT+F4 . BTW, you can also do tail -f /var/log/syslog while the packages are being installed.
Hope this helps.
