Yea, it's a real shame that the basic install CD for Slackware 8.1 does not appear to contain any boot/root disks. Go to the same FTP or web site where you got the original ISO for slack and change into the main slackware directory where the extra and source directories are found and bootdsks and rootdsks should be there. I downloaded the entire directories and the others so I could burn my own set of CD's for Slackware 8.1. I'm sure they aren't identical to whatever Pat sells but I included just about everything on my 3 disks except for possibly pasture or patches (can't remember for sure off the top of my head right now. Supposedly, the install disk is bootable but I haven't figured out how to read the bootable partition at this point since my machine can't boot from CDROM.
