Calling all slackers...

Slackware users/hackers that is.
There is a little site called www.slackdoc.org
It's aim is pretty obvious I suppose. Please check it out.

Looks like an interesting site...I thank you for telling us about it. Anyone know how to get ahold of the slackware iso for the alpha arch? I don't mind RH, but would like to use something I'm a little more familiar with.

I can't remember off the top of my head but Patrick knows. They discontinued the offical dev on alpha but the 7.1 ISO's are floating somewhere.

Thanks, Ashcrow. Now I have another question: since they don't have any iso's on the site (that I could find, anyway), do I just copy the slakware folder to cdrom and make the three boot diskettes? I have never had to use a non-iso before, so please forgive my ignorance.

Thanks

Pretty much, yeah. Mimick the ISO folder layout with the directories and burn them and use a boot disk.

Thanks, Ashcrow. I will do that.
