When you get to the package selection screen, it appears that once again
there is a "select one item from a list", and the default selection is
highlighted. Nowhere does it say anything about pressing the spacebar.

I think the terminology could be improved slightly, but when I used the
installer the other day it did say this.

Have you got a suggestion for what the information at the bottom should
say? If so I suggest that you pass it on.

http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/i386/ch06s01.html.en

is a little more explicit about how the system works.
