D: = an extra hard drive I used to install Slackware3.5.0 to a linux
system that did not have a CDROM.
M: = a CDROM drive
>From windows95 desktop I ran a dos prompt:
XCOPY M:\SLAKWARE\*.TGZ D:\SLAKWARE\/S
XCOPY M:\SLAKWARE\TAGFILE. D:\SLAKWARE\/S
XCOPY M:\SLAKWARE\DISK*. D:\SLAKWARE\/S
XCOPY M:\SLAKWARE\INSTALL.END D:\SLAKWARE\/S
If I remember correctly, this is about 130 megabytes.
You only need the packages that you will be installing from 'Select
Packages to Install'.
I edited all TAGFILEs so that the 'install selected packages' would run
to completion without any prompts.
