Hi Joe, I've always wondered what exactly went on a Slackware boot disk. I was thinking of building a new slackware boot disk when the next distro version came out. Figured I could help out if needs be. I figure it is probably nothing more than a set of devs, lilo and the kernel. One thing I've never come by is the proper configuration for the kernel compile. Do you have that info by chance? I would like to get a set of slackware boots with speakup 10A at least, if not, a good CVS version. The way it is now, if one uses the current slackware version, they have to use speakup 0.09 with 2.2.16 kernel. I think a boot with 2.2.19 would be in order though Current slackware prod is still back with 2.2.16 kernel.
