I know nothing about boot/root disks, but I beg to differ about the ISO. All I did was download the ISO (1 hour plus on cable, YMMV with dialup) from I forget which mirror, use cdrecord to burn a cd, prep my partitions (Slack is not my only distro), boot up the cd, and install. Nothing could be simpler. Of course, I deviated by declining to use Lilo, since I have a working grub setup - no distro writes to my mbr, thank your very much! The install instructions (not much is needed) are in the online Slack manual. I haven't heard any horror stories; this is good stuff. -- Collins Richey - Denver Area - WWTLRD? gentoo(since 01/01/01) 2.4.18+(ext3) xfce-sylpheed-mozilla _______________________________________________ Linux-users mailing list - http://linux-sxs.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-users Subscribe/Unsubscribe info, Archives,and Digests are located at the above URL.
