Hi,I'm trying to install Slackware 64 on a raid 0 fakeraid, I found out that I need kernel support for that. Dm raid. What I did was, I made a virtual machine with no raid compiled the kernel and created a new iso
file wich included in the /kernels folder my own kernel too. I burned the image but on boot I got the "image checksum error..."

I got confused by all the stuff I've read about linux booting.

I need a simple guide how to make a custom made Slackware iso to boot. How do I generate new checksums, how should I write the iso file to make it work?

hop on the slackware ftp or mirror
browse to the release you want
enter the isolinux dir
check out the readme files

Hi,

'Cooking Up Some Slack (CUSS)' may give you some insight.


The above link and others can be found at 'Slackware-Links'. More than just Slackware® links!

Thanks I managed to make the bootable ISO, by reading the instructions.

Thanks it really gave a push forward, opened some new questions but definetly a step forward.
