custum slackware install (no floppy)


I want to make some custom slackware install discs.

I have no floppy drive.

I want to take a bunch of stuff on the slackware-10.1 default install out.

Adding a couple of things would be nice too.


At first I used WinISO under windows and extracted the tagfiles from the ISOs, then edited, and finally stuck them back into the ISO.
This failed giving me an error like 'isolinux checksum error'...

After reading about this alot, I'm getting confused.


What steps do I need to make? I've edited the tagfiles. Do I have to edit 'maketag' also?

Could I download the slackware 10.1 dir tree delete folders I dont want like KDE, or Y (games) , and then make an ISO???

You'll most likely have to recreate the ISO after modifing it. There is a Windows version of mkisofs available. This site may help.
