Subject: Downloading Slackware 9.1
Posted By: CFerthorney Post Date: 10/25/2003 1:20:59 PM
Hi,

This is kind of embarrassing .  I am no Linux Guru, but I do know a little.  I use Slackware at University, and am now setting up a Slackware Server at home.  I need to download 9.1 from the Slackware website.  

"Not a problem I thought.  Downloading is easy"  - HA!

Do I need to download all the files under the 9.1 folder?  Or should I download all of them from the 9.1-iso folder?

I have installed Slackware 8 several times (And indeed have the CD, but am interested in 9, due to the fact one of my lecturers suggested it was better for what I was going.) so am used to Slackwares "Qurks".

Thanks in advance.

If you get the ISO, you can then use some cd burning software - eg nero on windows, or k3b on linux to build yourself an install cd like the one you have of 8. That'd be the only file you needed to download, but a .iso is basically everything on the cd, so it'll be big...
