Mon Apr 25 13:37:00 UTC 2011 Slackware 13.37 x86_64 stable is released! Thanks to everyone who pitched in on this release: the Slackware team, the folks producing upstream code, and linuxquestions.org for providing a great forum for collaboration and testing. The ISOs are off to be replicated, a 6 CD-ROM 32-bit set and a dual-sided 32-bit/64-bit x86/x86_64 DVD. Please consider supporting the Slackware project by picking up a copy from store.slackware.com. We're taking pre-orders now, and offer a discount if you sign up for a subscription. As always, thanks to the Slackware community for testing, suggestions, and feedback. :-) Have fun!

ZipSlack</a></h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>Obtaining ZipSlack is easy. If you have purchased the official Slackware Linux CD set,
|
|
then you already have ZipSlack. Just find the CD that contains the <tt
|
|
class="FILENAME">zipslack</tt> directory and place it in your CD-ROM drive. It's usually
|
|
the third or fourth disc, but always trust the labels over this documentation as the disk
|
|
it resides on is prone to change.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>If you want to download ZipSlack, you should first visit our “Get Slack”
|
|
web page for the latest download information:</p>
|
|
|
|
<p><a href="http://www.slackware.com/getslack/"
|
|
target="_top">http://www.slackware.com/getslack/</a></p>
|
|
|
|
<p>ZipSlack is part of each Slackware release. Locate the release you want, and go to
|
|
that directory on the FTP site. The latest release directory can be found at this
|
|
location:</p>
|
|
|
|
<p><a href="ftp://ftp.slackware.com/pub/slackware/slackware/"
|
|
target="_top">ftp://ftp.slackware.com/pub/slackware/slackware/</a></p>
|
|
|
|
<p>You'll find ZipSlack in the <tt class="FILENAME">/zipslack</tt> subdirectory. ZipSlack
|
|
is offered as one big <tt class="FILENAME">.ZIP</tt> file or floppy-sized chunks. The
|
|
chunks are in the <tt class="FILENAME">/zipslack/split</tt> directory.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Don't stop at just the <tt class="FILENAME">.ZIP</tt> files. You should also download
|
|
the documentation files and any boot images that appear in the directory.</p>
|
|
|
|
<div class="SECT2">
|
|
<h2 class="SECT2"><a id="ZIPSLACK-INSTALLATION" name="ZIPSLACK-INSTALLATION">19.2.1
|
|
Installation</a></h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>Once you've downloaded the necessary components, you'll need to extract the <tt
|
|
class="FILENAME">.ZIP</tt> file. Be sure to use a 32-bit unzipper. The size and filenames
|
|
in the archive are too much for a 16-bit unzipper. Examples of 32-bit unzippers include
|
|
WinZip and PKZIP for Windows.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>ZipSlack is designed to be extracted directly to the root directory of a drive (such
|
|
as <tt class="DEVICENAME">C:</tt> or <tt class="DEVICENAME">D:</tt>). A <tt
|
|
class="FILENAME">\LINUX</tt> directory will be created that contains the actual Slackware
|
|
installation. You'll also find the files necessary to booting the system in that
|
|
directory as well.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>After you've extracted the files, you should have a <tt class="FILENAME">\LINUX</tt>
|
|
directory on the drive of your choosing (we'll use <tt class="DEVICENAME">C:</tt> from
|
|
here on).</p>
