Of course you can. INstall from the installation DVD, choose "Custom" at the DE selection screen, then you get the group selection and you can also go to "Individual package selection".
If you did not get any selection screen then you have installed from one of the live CDs, where there is no selection, obviously.

Neither or both, any way you want to see it.Lebarhon wrote:Does "Custom" mean choose other DEs than KDE and Gnome (LXDE, XFCE,...) or mean choose the packages (one by one) ?

No, I don't think that there is a back button there, but that's not really a problem because the next step is the package group selection. It is by default identical with the default KDE you can select in the previous screen. So, if you want the default KDE you can just hit "OK" and that's it, no back step needed. If you want to use Gnome you can erase the mark at the KDE group and mark the Gnome group - then "OK".Lebarhon wrote:Just another question, if I choose "Custom"; have I a "Previous" or "Back" button ? If so, even if "Custom" isn't clear, it doesn't matter because I can just have a look and go back, but many steps in the installation progress haven't such a button, so in this case, it must be very clear.
In the French version, "Custom" is translated by "Installation personnalisée" (Customized installation), I think it's clearer because it deals with Installation, not only DE.
