Wed Aug 26 10:00:38 CDT 2009
Slackware 13.0 x86_64 is released as stable! Thanks to everyone who
helped make this release possible -- see the RELEASE_NOTES for the
credits. The ISOs are off to the replicator. This time it will be a
6 CD-ROM 32-bit set and a dual-sided 32-bit/64-bit x86/x86_64 DVD.
We're taking pre-orders now at store.slackware.com. Please consider
picking up a copy to help support the project. Once again, thanks to
the entire Slackware community for all the help testing and fixing
things and offering suggestions during this development cycle.
As always, have fun and enjoy! -P.

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> +</div> +</div> + +<div class="NAVFOOTER"> +<hr align="LEFT" width="100%" /> +<table summary="Footer navigation table" width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" +cellspacing="0"> +<tr> +<td width="33%" align="left" valign="top"><a href="zipslack.html" +accesskey="P">Prev</a></td> +<td width="34%" align="center" valign="top"><a href="index.html" +accesskey="H">Home</a></td> +<td width="33%" align="right" valign="top"><a href="zipslack-booting.html" +accesskey="N">Next</a></td> +</tr> + +<tr> +<td width="33%" align="left" valign="top">ZipSlack</td> +<td width="34%" align="center" valign="top"><a href="zipslack.html" +accesskey="U">Up</a></td> +<td width="33%" align="right" valign="top">Booting ZipSlack</td> +</tr> +</table> +</div> +</body> +</html> + |
