Downloading only what you need and deciding what you need are two different
problems. You asked about downloading only what you need and were given
the answer to that problem.

As far as picking what you want, I seem to remember there being only a couple
of choices if you don't customize, and they shouldn't be too hard figure out
for novice users.
