[Cialug] Debian ?

[albus]

Okay you Debianites.

How do I apt-get remove all of a set of packages such as games or editors or 
etc.....?
I've installed Knoppix 3.8 (a PAIN to say the least) but now I want to rip 
everything out
as I don't want anything on but Firefox for browsing and that's about it.

It is going  in to a coffee shop for the casual user to browse the net and 
that about all.

I know I can run it from the CD-ROM but I figure in time it will wear the 
he11 out of
the drive.
