The Slackware installers on Kirkwood and Tegra do not use removable
media - it's installed over the network.

My own personal opinion (which I think isn't at all in line with anyone
else's, from what I can tell) is that a device such as a phone isn't
really a candidate for your favourite OS - it's just about what apps you
can install upon it; thus it would never cross my mind to want to install
Slackware on my ARM powered phone.
