Chris Lamb has a good Debian installation checklist, from which I stole most of this list.
1 # Configure sudo, adding my user to the sudo group so I don't get password prompts
2 aptitude install sudo
3 addgroup xjjk sudo
4
5 # Configure locales to prevent harassment about it later
6 aptitude install locales
7 dpkg-reconfigure -plow locales
8 # …or install all locales so they don't need to be configured/reinstalled
9 aptitude install locales-all
10
11 # Disable installation of recommended packages
12 echo 'APT::Install-Recommends "false";' > /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/90recommends
13
14 # Enable log compression with date postfix'd extension
15 cat /etc/logrotate.conf | sed "s/#compress/compress/" > /etc/logrotate.conf.tmp
16 echo "dateext" >> /etc/logrotate.conf.tmp
17 mv /etc/logrotate.conf.tmp /etc/logrotate.conf
18
19 # Prevent PAM from allowing easily-crackable passwords
20 apt-get install libpam-cracklib
21
22 # Install essential utilities
23 sudo aptitude install
24 openssh-server \
25 atool lzma rzip xz-utils \
26 htop dstat iotop \
27 manpages manpages-dev \
28 strace tcpdump lsof \
29 moreutils \
30 dnsutils \
31 chrony \
32 molly-guard
33
34 # HDD Temperature/SMART monitoring utilities
35 aptitude install hddtemp smartmontools
36 sed -i 's/^#start_smartd=yes/start_smartd=yes/' /etc/default/smartmontools
37 /etc/init.d/smartmontools start
