Dick, From the slackware wiki <https://slackwiki.com/Install_Slackware_Using_A_USB_Flash_Drive> the process is to first boot from a Slackware DVD or other source, then put the .iso on a flash drive. But, you've already have the flash drive with the .iso so this is the applicable sction: Install with Unetbootin It is possible to install with unetbootin. Download the Slackware iso image of your choice and then install to a USB drive using unetbootin. Tutorials for unetbootin are everywhere. Then, when you get to the SOURCE option in setup use the drive you are installing slackware from (usually it is /dev/sdb1). When it asks where the packages are, enter /slackware for 32 bit or /slackware64 for 64 bit. This was tested using the Slackware 14.0 64-bit x86_64 iso. Should work for 14.2, too. Looking at the unetbootin home page < Should work for 14.2, too. Looking at the unetbootin home page <https://unetbootin.github.io/> I learned that it will work with an already downloaded .iso on a flash drive. I've used only optical disks to install the distribution so I cannot be more helpful than these two URLs.
