I download all Slackware's discs (1-6).
And install binary packages from disks 1-3.
I compile new kernel 2.6.18. I enjoy.
But I don`t understand "how I can
install system from sources discs (4-6)?"
I want have system that is optimizating
to my computer. Please, say me, where I can
find documentation about this instalation method.

Thanks.
PS. Sorry for my English

if you did the full install, the programs as represented by the sources on disks 4-6 should already be installed. however, you can install those sources by using the SlackBuild script found in each directory. general overview of using the SlackBuild script

Thank you.
I will read this link soon more carefully.
If I understand right I cannot compile
all packages with using only one
command. I have to install every package
independently?
